I'm trying to get the best output from the computer using either the HDMI to DVI cable.
but what ever setting I use part of the picture from HD shows I have on my PC are missing around the edges, not allot but enough to annoy me.
I previously used DVI to DVI but since I had an available HDMI port on the TV I figured it would be a better picture.
Can anyone point me in the correct direction as to the appropriate cables & what settings to use.
TV has S-Video, DVI, Composite(used for comcast box) & HDMI
Thanks in advance
