SoundGammon Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 ...try a lower resolution, maybe 1024 by 768. This is the dvd standard if I'm not mistaken... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) You need to find out what your plasma will accept on the VGA port and set the computer to match. My HDTV only accepts 640x480 on the VGA port. DVDs have a max resolution of 720 x 480 in NTSC regions and 720 x 576 in PAL regions. http://en.wikipedia...._and_frame_rate Edited October 16, 2011 by SpiceWare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keatah Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Well, you connect up the cables and turn the stuff on. Then you shall see an image and be able to play games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rex Dart Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Games tend to display on whatever's designated as Monitor 1. Helps if you use desktop cloning rather than two desktops, I've found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
