See sig for PC details. I have it connected to my LG 47LV5400 47" LED LCD TV via HDMI --> Mini HDMI cable, no adapters. Resolution is set to 1920x1080. All the text is so small, I have to increase font sizes/zoom on websites and games. I would have thought 1920x1080 on this TV as a computer screen, everything would have been much larger scale. I'm assuming it has something to do with the way the TV processes the resolution, but other than that I have no idea. Can someone explain this to me?
Just set your resolution to something lower. I have a 50" Plasma and I use 1024x768 but try a few and see what they look like. I don't know anything about Nvidia drivers but Catalyst Control Center has a setting that scales the picture to fill the screen no matter what resolution you use. I generally set games to 1680x1050. That looks good on my TV.
You can adjust OS text scaling by going to (Win7):
Right click desktop->Screen Resolution->"Make text and other items larger or smaller"->Check Larger->Apply
For browsers, hold control and scroll the mouse wheel up or down to enlarge the page.
I highly recommend this over changing the resolution.
I know about the scroll-to-zoom and the text size adjustment, but it doesn't really help when I'm gaming and trying to read the text box. I'm just curious as to why that low of a resolution on a TV so big looks so small.
I had that same problem with X3: The Threat.Quote:
