Hi,

I'm trying to hook-up my Laptop to my 32" Panasonic HDTV and I'm having some resolution issues.

My laptops native resolution is 1366 x 768

According to the manufacturer specs, my TV also has a native resolution of 1,366 x 768 and can dispaly in 1080i, 720p, or 480p.

However, Win7 claims the TV's native resolution is 1280 x 720 (or maybe 1240 x 720). The Nvidia Control panel claims it is 1920 x 1080. None of these resolutions fit properly on the screen. The closest is 1366 x 768, but that still cuts off all but the very top of the taskbar and a little of the sides.

I do have one game that let's me display in 1176 x 664, which fills almost the entire screen (maybe a 1cm black border), but that doesn't help for DVDs/Media Center. I've even tried to use the Nvidia Control Panel resize my desktop option with no success.

Anybody have some advice?
