So I hooked up my 32' LCD TV to my computer and while I like it a lot, it only goes up to 1360x768 maximum resolution, even though when I look in CCC the it says the maximum reported res is 1920x1080. Is there any way to force a higher resolution or am I stuck here? Should I be happy with it? If not I'm just going to go back to my 19' LCD Monitor which gives me 1440x900 until I can buy a bigger monitor. I am also using an HDMI cable to hook up with.

That's really an odd resolution for the video card to settle on. Your TV is a 1080p capable set?

Do you see a black border around your 1360x768 picture?

Actually it's not 1080 capable, I thought it was. 720P looks like the max, and I'm getting the max allowed resolution on it. Sorta sucks, not sure if I'm going to keep it plugged in or just drop some cash on a 27' that supports higher resolutions.
