[QUOTE="dukeelam, post: 133281, member: 25258"] If you run your widescreen TV in a 1024x768 res. you will get a distorted picture from the start, as that gives a 4:3 (4/3=1.33, 1024/768=1.33) aspect. The icons on the desktop will look like they are short and wide. Check your graphics settings if your card has resolutions for 1366x768 (16/9~1.78, 1366/768~1.78) if your graphics card and converter can handle that output. If your graphics card has options for custom user resolutions you could try adding 1024x575 or another standard horizontal resolution (800 or 640) calculating the vertical value by divideing with 1.78 (NVidias newest gfx drivers have support for custom resolution, not sure about ATI though).
