Component TV-Out Problems

[ilovevideogames408]

I'm having trouble with my component TV Out.

Here's all the information that may be relevant towards the solution:

I use the component output on a video card I have connected to my computer.
I don't own "legit" component cables, so I use composite cables.
Delivers the results the "legit" component cables would, high definition and 16:9, except I have at least an inch of the screen cut off from each side.
The video card I have is an nVidia 9800 GTX+

There is an option to resize HDTV Desktop that will provide a custom resolution perfect for your TV that eliminates overscan.

Thnx for your help. although the reg value for the old cp didnt work for me, i was able to find an nvidia driver that would allow me to resize my hdtv screen. in fact, thats what im using now the clarity decreases as you alter the size, but its still better than svideo, and the glazoom addon in ff helps. thnx for the reply

I use my 62" HDTV as a monitor all the time. Is yours LCD, Plasma, Rear Projection, DLP, or what? I don't have any problems with clarity changing as I adjust resolution. I didn't have to make any crazy changes either. I just selected slightly larger fonts across the board. I use 720p for desktop applications and 1080i for playing games and both look superb. The Cleartype tuning tool in the microsoft powertoys helps quite a bit if you're using XP.
