    Hey everyone,

    I have my SZ160 hooked up via docking station via the DVI port to my 37" Sceptre LCD HDTV 1080p 1920x1080 display. A picture is going through but it's shakey / blurry. Somone whom has the same TV and a PC with an NVIDIA card too on another board said that I need to make sure I select the option for HDTV in my NVIDIA video display options. I remember a setting like that on my S360 but can't find that option on my SZ160. Has anyone seen this option or do they know how to get to it? Is it something that just isn't available in the Sony version of the drivers? Should I try other ones, if it's even possible?

    All info and help is truly appreciated as always!

    Thanks in advance!

    Have you tried running the Nvidia Assistent for using an external monitor? I don't recall the exact name but you should be able to start it in your Nvidia properties. It'll then ask you what you have connected, with what cable, etc.
