2 Click Display Settings.
3 If necessary, select the TV.
4 Click the Advanced Settings button.
5 Click the tab for the video card. (The tab may be labeled Displays, ATI Displays,
Ge Force xxx, nView, or Devices.)

onscreen instructions.

Connecting to a Monitor or High-Definition TV
Choosing the AV connection to use
When you connect optional equipment as signal sources, the connectors on the equipment
may limit the type of connection that you can use. When the optional equipment has more
than one type of output connector, choose the connection that provides the best-quality
playback image. For best results, choose the best-quality connection type that is supported
by the optional equipment.
NOTE: The TV must be connected to the computer to change the display settings.
NOTE: Some graphic cards have a DVI connector and a
DVI-to-VGA converter included in the box (select models only). If the
monitor has a VGA connector but no DVI connector, use the
DVI-to-VGA converter to connect to the computer: Connect the
DVI-to-VGA converter to the DVI connector on the computer graphic
card, and then connect the VGA cable to the converter and to the
monitor.
