VGA is analog whereas HDMI is digital. There is typically a image quality difference with HDMI having a better image. If connected via VGA a male / male mini audio plug can be used. However, we haven’t established that making such a change would correct your problem. Perhaps we could use more info on your setup.

What driver are you using for the video card?

What is the refresh rate at 1280x720?

What OS are you using?

Was there a driver disc that came with the TV for PC display usage?

Ok, so here it goes. I'm using windows 7 64 bit edition, the lasted Ati drivers 10.1, the refresh rate is 60hz at 720, and i never got a disc with the t.v i'm 100 percent sure about that.
I read the manual for the t.v, and it says that it goes up to 1360x768, but all over online says 1366x768. Which is kinda wierd. :S

Well I guess that all looks in order. Is the “Hide modes that this monitor cannot display” checkmark selected? Mind you I’m not suggesting you uncheck it if it is because that could cause some problems in theory.

Also I’m not sure what you meant by this:

Did you mean to say a resolution 1366x768 for both?

No, the tv manual says the tvs resolution MAX is 1360x768 but online it says the max res is 1366x768... well somehow, im able to play games at 1360x720 without any issues or black bars...but any resolution higher then that and i get black bars around the whole image.
