I can not change the resolution on my Hitachi projection from the 600x480, whether I use it as the secondary or even if I use only that (as the main monitor). I have updated my Radeon 8500 drivers, but does anyone have an idea on why I cant get this to change resolutions?

And I have to have my monitor set on 600x480 also in order to have both the tv and monitor on at the same time. Is this my video card not handling my tv? Should I get a different video card?

I would REALLY appreciate some help on this, since it is very annoying to have 1/2 a foot icons on my tv and only see 1/4 of a web page when the browser's menus take up the other 3/4!!

By the way, I'm using DVI connection

Thanks
