    Been having trouble connecting a LCD TV through VGA. The TV should support 1360x768 according to the manual, native Resolution is 1366x768. But that resolution is not an option.

    1360x768 is listed among the Resoltions to choose from, but chosing that one the TV goes black and show's a message "Not Supported Mode" while it certanly should support it. Might it be the Radeon X1600 not capable of sending that specific resolution? I'm Very confused, and very annoyed. Spending a lot on a 40" LCD TV i'm almost taking for granted that it should have better support than this.

    Anyways? Is there anyone who been having the Same trouble connecting LCD-TV's through VGA i'd me more than grateful for any help. Maybe some softwhere where i can set custom resolutions?

    I'm not sure about the X1600 supporting that specific resolution. But I'm sure that the X1600 supports HDTV. Even my older X700 supports HDTV. Check if the X1600 supports that resolution on ATI or something.
