How can get better computer screen resolution on my plasma tv screen?

Crypto asked:


I recently bought a DVI/HDMI cable and connected my computer to my 42″ plasma tv. The resolution is very poor. I tried changing the resolution to match the tv (1080) but it made the text very hard to read. I tried adjusting the resolution from the video card and the computer settings, nothing. No matter what resolution I try, it still looks bad. Not sure if it matters, but I’m running a 7950 GT video card.

Krissy asked:


Since, they are not always accurate…what are the differences? How do real forensic scientists work compared to the ones on TV? How accurate do you think other popular representations of health care are in books, movies or tv shows?

I already have direct tv at my house but only for one TV and I would like to have another box so i my wife can watch it in another room. I found some on ebay with a access card and was thinking about buying it but will direct tv charge me extra monthly? Do I need to tell them I bought new receivers so they could activate it?

tennisleto87 asked:


My tv will pick up cable channels 2-53 but not 54-80. I have tried everything I can think if like unplugging the cable and removing all the channels and adding them. I tv also wont even go to the channels I know I should have even when I enter them in. I am at a loss of what to do now besides by a new tv which I can’t afford.

We are ready to purchase an LCD tv, but not sure which place to buy it from. We are wanting one that is at least a 1080p and has at least a 3000 or more contrast ratio. We are looking to buy it somewhere within the Kansas City, Missouri metro area.
