Martin J Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Can't you use a DVI > HDMI cable? I use that from my PC to the TV, works great. Is about 2.5m. Also you say the 'desktop seems to be streched beyond the borders of the TV screen' - can you just change your TV to compensate? My set is a Sony and I had to change the display to show 'Full Pixel' to get a 1:1 pixel match, then the desktop would fit perfectly. Maybe your TV has a similar option?

Digsy Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Some extensions are not fully wired either, especially cheapo ones. Doubt you want to spend this much but one of the best VGA cables i have ever used (used to do installs in recording studios etc) was a VanDamme (not Jean Claude) Google VDC cables and you'll find them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VGA_connector Check that pins 4, 11, 12 and 15 are wired from end to end using a multimeter. FWIW I'm using a Lindy 5m VGA cable with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
