Okay I have an issue with my new flat screen tv 26" I am using as my new monitor. I have fixed part of the problem but not all of it. When I bring my scope up in the sniper server on the COD4 it goes from full screen to an edge on both sides and it looks like its an old movie projector effect. How can I get that to stop.

Could you take a screen shot for me Dean ? But I think you might have the wrong screen setting (aspec ratio). If your new monitor is wide screen you have to choose a 16 by 9 screen resolution. here are some 1600x 900 1360 x 768 1280 x 720 .

You have to change your PC resolution to 1920x1080 for 1080p TVs.There should also be a tab in your TVs setup to set Full screen or stretch to fit.I'm using my Media center PC that I built on a LG 47" 3D 1080p LED TV.Man I love downloading 3d p0rn0 :whistle:

I guess that answers that. I was actually wondering the same thing last night but didn't put much effort into fixing it.

Sweatnbullits - absolutely no difference. I went from 720 to 1080p about a year ago. All my games look exactly the same (perfect) as the did on my old 720 tv. Just a larger screen size.
