connecting a gtx to sharp lc-45gx6u

[nomadicdude]

I'm using DVI to the TV. I've tried setting the resolution to the lowest possible option and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Is this the Sharp AQUIOS? Try fiddling with the T.V settings. You might have to toggle between VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, etc.

I connected it to the DVI input (Input 5) and made sure the type of input is Digital PC. But no luck.

when I connect a regular computer LCD screen to the second DVI output of the GTX it works fine.

There's a couple of caveats with the Sharp.

#1 - The highest input resolution it can display is 1280x768 to the AVC box. Make sure that you set to that resolution before connecting up the set.

#2 - You can get 1920x1080p resolution, but you'll need to bypass your AVC box and connect it directly from ur video card to the panel. You'll have limited control over the set now unless you get a DVI switcher.

Forget 1920x1080, I'm trying resolutions starting from 640x480 and it doesn't work. I even setup the Nvidia to recognize monitor as HDTV. But no luck. I am wondering if there any setting on the TV that I haven't taken care of.
