    Is it possible to set a custom resolution on a 2nd monitor?


    I'm using an older TV , a Sanyo Model DP50747, and it has no settings for resolution or anything like that, and it doesn't work with anything, it cuts a few inches off of the picture on all sides, it's terrible. Anyway, I can't seem to find a way to scale the resolution down, the custom scale only goes 100-500, I can't go under 100%.

    :)

    Setting Display Resolution selectively: Possible ?

    Hello,

    I have a program that shows an "active" screen.
    With my eyesight these days, a bit of a problem in reading it, due to its size.

    Came across a good suggestion that to make it appear larger, to lower the display resolution.

    Question: is this possible selectively, just for this one program and the higher
    resolution would remain for all the other programs, or it's a Global setting, an all-or-nothing ?

    Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
    (There are no "handles," etc. to drag the display that is showing larger)

    Thanks,
    Bob

    Is it possible to set a custom resolution on a 2nd monitor?

    AMD FX OC'ers Club

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
