    I want to connected my Acer 1410 to a TV (which has VGA input). The resolution on the TV is so bad, and the text is approximately not readable (it is better for video played by Windows Media Player. Do I need to install a driver for the Generic non-PnP monitor? The TV is a local brand.

    Thanks

    You need to set the resolution to the correct resolution for the TV.

    There are lots of options, and I tried all of them, but not resolved :(
