Im retarded. I have a panasonic 42 inch and want to hook my AMD whatever computer up to it. Is this a simple matter of connections or do i need a special video card, and does that kind of thing exist. Thanks for the help!

First of all, I'm going to guess your TV only supports 720p resolution, so you will definitely have overlap

Even if you had 1088i/p you are still going to have overlap.

If your TV has a VGA, or DVI input (which is most definitely does) it is a simple matter of buying a 2-way cable for that connection type. (White=DVI, Blue=VGA)

Once they are hooked up you should be able to use the TV as a monitor. If you are hooking it up as an additional display you will have to set it up within the Display Properties in Windows.

If you are simply hooking it up as the only display it should work as soon as you hook it up.

Yea 1080i only. I actually dont think my model has vga or dvi, ony hdmi and svideo. But I believe they have dvi to hdmi converters, so I'll try that (as soon as I get home). B
