[QUOTE="emphatic, post: 1033394, member: 24365"] In ATI CCC, set your desktop resolution to 1920x1080 @ 60 hz and click apply (I'm guessing, I have an NVIDA card) and as the video card changes resolution from what you're using right now (720p?) you will either see a picture (and your TV's OSD might show a message what resolution it's displaying - this is where my Panasonic set shows me 16:9 / 1080p) or your TV will only display a black image and after a couple of seconds, the picture should return as the video card's "Do you want to keep this resolution" prompt times out. Also, is your TV set plasma, LCD or LED? On my set, I can't really make out the difference between 720p and 1080i (there's no flicker at 1080i, something that I'm used to seeing when using interlaced resolutions on other tech (CRT), so I've been using 1080i to allow my video card to output all the hz I want (24, 50 and 60). To be on the safe side though, do check with a lower resolution first, like 1024x768 to make sure the ATI CCC will display that resolution prompt or you might be stuck with a resolution that you can't use and might not be able to get back from without hooking your HTPC up to another monitor first.
