See what you are trying to do is trying to run a resolution which is simply too big for your 24 inch monitor. Definitely 50 inch tv will support more resolutions while 24 inch monitor will support less resolutions , so the graphic card uses the resolution which is supported by both the tv and the monitor.
Hi Kevin,
Actually I'm using dvi to vga converter so that my monitor would work.
2.toshiba tv
3.acer 24 inch monitor
4.1920x1200
5.default should be 1920x1200 but it change to 1620x1000 when both plugged in
6.i put it auto all the time
7.im using windows. 7

You said it supports 1920x1200 but it is changed to 1620x1000. Why do think it does that, because your graphic card uses the resolution which is supported by both. This is the basic rule of Dual Screen or eyefinity setup. 2, 3 monitors should support a common resolution so that when they are attached the resolution can be used. If the most highest resolution is used of all monitors at one monitor the screen would be stretched and in the other monitor it might be to small.

The VGA cable is a analog wire when i connect my pc with LED tv with VGA it seems like the picture is stretched and a little bright but if you use HDMI cable which is a digital signal cable of course the picture would be fine and good cause it is a digital signal, it why it was created so that VGA cables had a problem when doing dual screen and using a large sized TV's and monitors.

It happens cause when you connect the two monitors the scaling might not be happening properly, the screen might be going outside the monitor cause of size(24 inch and 54 inch) so that's why laptop or pc when connected with both use a resolution and the scaling at which both will give the best results. You could try HDMI splitter it would help. Or again it might the VGA cable that be doing it.

Hi Kevin,
1. I tried to avoid using vga and change to DVI(connected to monitor) and HDMI(connected to tv)
2. I am not sure what is the exact model , I only know it is a 50 inch toshiba tv (my customer's one)
3. I only know it is a 22 inch acer
4,5. Too bad , both of it is at the customer house as I still can't figure out the solution.
