Help with new LCD Tv

Check on your TV, see if there is a PC setting or something along those lines. My roommate's TV has that, and if definitely works better than the regular setting.
 
Looks like you're using Windows 7--saw a post from someone previously, and the suggestion was that Windows 7 has display options that can help crisp up text. Couldn't find the post, but maybe if you search in display options/preferences. Otherwise, update video drivers? That's all I've got.
 
Hmm.. however, for some reason now I got the text and picture to look good, but for some reason, even though I'm at the monitor's native resolution of 1920x1080, a big part of the picture is cut off... any ideas? When I scroll to the left in Windows the screen moves to the other part of the picture. (I'm in XP)
 
Yes but if the LCD TVs native resolution is 1920 x 1080, then why is the picture like 30% too large when I set it to that? When I don't use GPU scaling, it fits the screen at 1920 x 1080 res, but it looks like crap... when I do use GPU scaling, it looks good, but 1920 x 1080 ends up stretched somehow so part of the picture is off-screen
 
I seem to remember some Catalyst drivers enabling overscan, even on a digital connection running to an LCD at a native resolution. Check the Catalyst control panel and see if overscanning is enabled.

Also, you could try different driver versions. I had some weirdness with certain nVidia drivers that refused to properly output the native resolution on the TV even though it SAID it was outputting native without overscan. Granted, this was nVidia and soemthing like 9 months ago, but it's worth looking at if you've exhausted other avenues.
