I just got a 32" hdtv to use as my PC monitor and as a screen for my 360.

The 360 is connected on VGA, and so is the PC. Right now I am just switching them back and forth.

On the PC there are vertical lines of blurriness that change with I adjust the phase.

I was just wondering if I get a DVI>HDMI adapter if the blurry lines will go away.

Also, will that cable work properly and let me select the correct resolutions and stuff? I know that when I used the s-video-component cable the resolutions didn't show up right.

you're best off tweaking it and sticking with VGA, I'm assuming you have a 720p panel with a max res of 1366x768.. in which case you can run it in 1280x720, or 1360x768.. you should generally let it setup the phase it self.. but its mostly blurry because of the res on that size of a display.. unless you have a 1080p display.. which shouldnt have any problems... same thing happens on my tv..

Not all of it is blurry... just a few lines.

I can change the phase... but that just changes where the lines are.

Why would you not recommended the cable?
 
depends on your video card....its my understanding the 8800 series will not do 1360/768..i have my pc connected to my Pio. Plasma by dvi to hdmi receiver to hdmi set. I cannot set the above res. with the Nvidia control panal or powerstrip. seems to be a known problem around the net. All other res are available. ....and my sets native is the above.
