Did you modify your display settings on your computer to run on a second monitor?

Nah not yet, i just want to do one monitor only, not a dual setup

[leemajors]

just use a DVI cable, and make sure the monitor is set to use the DVI input. why even mess with VGA?

You still probably need to change your display configuration to reflect the fact that you're using a different monitor.

Check the manual for your TV, it may not support the resolution you have set on your PC.
