[QUOTE="GWfan, post: 494888, member: 96289"] Yeah, it's connected via HDMI. I double checked the manual and under Supported Signal Modes, HDMI Mode is listed as: 420p - Horizontal Frequency: 31.468 KHz - Vertical Frequency 59.94 Hz 720p - Horizontal Frequency: 45.00 KHz - Vertical Frequency 60.00 Hz 1080i - Horizontal Frequency: 33.75 KHz - Vertical Frequency 60.00 Hz I'm no expert, but my theory is the computer has discerned the available modes the LCD has to offer and has indeed found 'the best option' at 1920x1080 - 30 Hz interlaced (or in other words, 1080i). Whenever I try to change the settings to [B][U]anything[/U][/B] other than the above, the screen just doesn't look right. And dropping down to 720p means Ati Catalyst and other windows don't entirely fit the screen (i.e. become too big), and some options become unviewable. The question is, can I get MP to allow me to change the dynamic refresh rate from Cinema mode to PAL? If I can do that, my troubles may be over... At present, only Cinema is selected with no other options available. BTW - Many thanks for your all help so far, Tony. :-) I think at last, I might be getting somewhere..! [/QUOTE]
