| 863719 | 2010-03-03 19:21:00 | I have a laptop running Windows XP and want to show the laptop screen on a high definition TV. When I connect from the svideo port of the laptop to the svideo of the TV my laptop changes from 1680 x 1050 to a screen size of 1024 x 768. This may be ok for a data projector but is not ok on a hidef TV. I am unable to change the screen size in control panel after this automatic switch. Any suggestions please? |

| 863721 | 2010-03-03 19:28:00 | Its probably the only resolution the laptop can handle on the TV, for s-video. Not much you can do about it | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
