[QUOTE="1gkar, post: 598499, member: 53076"] I don't have any familiarity with plasmas, as I've never owned one. Given its native res. is close to my 32" LCD, I am assuming it is of recent manufacture (the last 2-3 years). The fact its native res. does not show in your graphics card control panel may indicate on of two things: -your ATI card does not recognise that specific res., which I would be surprised at. -if your TV has multiple HDMI ports (I am assuming that is how you are connecting your PC to your TV), you may have connected it to a port that does not do [URL="http://pixelmapping.wikispaces.com/Pixel+mapping+explained"]1:1 pixel mapping[/URL] -my 32" LCD will only do 1:1 mapping on HDMI port 2. How do you tell if your TV is 1:1 pixel mapping: the text edges will be sharp & defined. If you have access to a PC with an LCD monitor, adjust the res. from what it is set to, & you see what I mean. Compare to your TV. You can try changing your HDMI cable to other ports on your TV. But reboot between attempts. Another option is to try setting a custom resolution; if your ATI software will let you do it. Other than that, you would need to use a third party app, like Powerstrip, of which I have no knowledge.
