VGA/SVGA High density Db15 cable

Hi,

I just recently bought an LCD TV "PYROD" which I used to replace my CRT monitor. I am getting sort of shadowy letters. so all document look somewhat blaired. what i found is that one side of VGA/SVGA cable pins are 14 instead of 15 which means one is missing. My question is this 14 pin cable from one side rather than the normal 15 pin is having an effect on this or is it the Pyrod LCD tv monitor it self. Thank you

Nope. All the pins in a VGA cable are not used.

I suspect the reason that you see a "fuzzy" display is that you aren't running the LCD at it's native resolution. I don't know anything about the Pyrod LCD TV, and since you provided no model number, it's hard to make a specific recommendation.
