PC hook-up to Panasonic DLP PT-50DL54

I want to hook up my PC to my Panasonic DLP PT-50DL54 TV using RGB or HDMI. Is there a way to get it to work in wide screen? The manual says "Aspect is not available while in RGB and HDMI mode." I have had it working full screen with an S-cable but I am not all that happy with the picture quality. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Have you not got a DVI/HDMI connection. If so use this as its the best connection, if not look or a VGA connection.

Set you graphics card to 1280x720 on your desktop and update your drivers. You will now get full screen.



DVI/HDMMI has 1:1 pixel mapping.
