    Optimizing TV as Monitor for PC use


    I currently have my PC connected to a Sony 46inch TV. It's a HDTV capable of outputting 1080p. I didn't have any problems connecting but the picture is really blurry even at max resolution of 1920x1280. Any ideas how to solve that problem?

    Hey. Are you connecting with an HDMI cable?

    Alright. You can fill out your system specs as we'd need to know that to offer any further help.

    OK

    Intel Core 3.0 Quadcore
    8GB RAM
    nVidia 9800GX2

    Am I missing anything else?

    Yeah, motherboard.

    Did you install the latset driver from NVIDIA's site?

    Umm, I don't really remember the name of my motherboard but it was MSI something. And yes I did update to the recent drivers from nVidia.

    I might not have been clear on the definition of "blurry". What I meant by that was that the picture is not as crisp clear as you would see on a regular computer monitor. The picture seems degraded, not crisp. Any idea why?
