Re: pc to tv resolution issue

What is your TV model?
Generally HMDI cable is suggested for HD connections between PC & TV.

Re: pc to tv resolution issue

1024x768 might be the best resolution of a VGA connection.
A rough search shows Toshiba Regza 1080i HDTV supports HDMI cable. If your PC has HDMI port, then you're ready to enjoy 1080i on TV.

Re: pc to tv resolution issue

Sounds like you're using an S-Video cable, am I right? Try Wula's idea of using an HDMI cable. My girlfriend's PC is connected to my 57" Mitsubishi via HDMI and works great.
