So I have a x700 with the component cables out the back...i hook it up to my HDTV and bam it should work fine right (latest drivers/catalyst installed). Nope instead its a blurry picture of what its suppose to display, i tweak around with resoution and refresh rates on the software for the TV and nothing, the best picture i got was still BLURRY, it was like the picture it is suppose to displayX5 and blurred together. So i went and saw if it was my TV or vid card, used the Composite video and bam works FINE, hooked up a different dvd player to the TV using component cables, bam TV is fine. So i spent like a combination of 3 hrs and my friend countless hours tweaking settings and downloading drivers/reinstalling, uninstalling drivers etc.

Anyone know what the problem could be?
 
This happened to me too with my X850. What I did was so simple it made me smack my head in disbelief.

In the Catalyst Control Center, under display options, after you have selected the output to be set to the TV, do it again - as in, drag the TV into the enabled display box a second time. This solved the entire problem for me.

Anyway, I don't know what the problem is that makes one do this, but like you said, it seems to be with component video only. S-video worked fine.
