I just bought a new Samsung LN-T4065 LCD TV. I am trying to hook it up to my PC. My video card is a Geforce 6800GS. Is there a way for me to get my PC to output at 1920x1080 resolution to this monitor? Currently the highest I can set it is 1600x1200, but when I look in the manual for the TV is says it is capabl eof 1920x1080 with a PC. Is this my system that is not allowing it? Does anyone know?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Getting 1920x1080 resolution from my LCD TV

I'm not sure what kind of pixel mapping it has. The refresh rate is 60 hertz. The problem is when I go to the display settings to size the resolution it doe not let me go as high as 1080. The highest it lets me go to is 1680x1050 and when I chose this it tells me that my monitor does not support it. However, it does not let me even select 1080 as an option.
Should be the same fix as it was for my Westinghouse.
Go to Control Panel->Display->Settings->Advanced->Geforce 6800GS
Enable Classic Control Panel (if necessary)
Go to Screen Resolutions & Refresh Rates
Check Show Standard HDTV modes
Go to nView Display Settings
Right click the Samsung monitor (might say Plug and play monitor instead), make sure Treat Digital Display as HDTV is checked, then Select TV format, 1080p. Check native on the screen that pops up and click OK. Click Apply, and it should attempt to set it to 1920x1080. If all's well click OK and you're done.
Otherwise you may have to add a custom resolution for 1920x1080 on the Screen Resolutions & Refresh Rates section. To do this click Add -> Enter 1920 for the width, 1080 for the height, and 60 for the refresh rate. Click Add. Select the new resolution and click Advanced Timing. From the first dropdown box, select 1920x1080 @ 59.94 - P and click Apply. Click OK if it all works.
Good luck!

I checked the display settings did not see anything that looked like "Dot by Dot" When I try to go 1650x1050 it tells me that my TV does not support that setting (but it does show up as an option). As per the manual, supported resoltions are 1024x764, 1080x1024, 1920x1080.

Make sure your looking for the Dot by Dot setting on your TV, not the PC.
