Sony and Samsung have decided to part ways on their seven-year-old LCD venture. Possibly due to Sony’s recent struggles in the increasingly competitive world of TV division, Samsung will buy up its 50 percent share for around 9 million. The Japanese company has agreed to a new strategic agreement to source Sammy’s LCDs in the future and, according to Sony, will continue “cooperative engineering efforts focused on LCD panel technology.” Its full explanation follows after the break.

Ok, Here is what I got. I have an ATI Radeon 9700 video card, in a computer that I built using spare parts from my friends Alienware. I have it hooked up via S-Video cable to my TV which is a Samsung 50” LCD HDTV. My problem is that even though I am running the latest drivers, the resolution on my TV image (which is a clone of my desktop) is just terrible. I have a friend with a RCA LCD 52” hooked up in much the same way ( except he uses VGA, an option I don’t have), but his picture is crystal clear. Is there a setting I can change to repair this? Or is my friends LCD just a better TV for this type of connection? Or are my dreams of having as crystal clear 50” HD image to play Call of Duty 3 on just a bit too lofty? Should I try to upgrade to Vista (grrr) or just stick with XP Pro? Any advice, good or bad, would be much appreciated. Thank you!!
I mentioned that my TV is a Samsung LCD, it is actually a DLP… if that affects anything
also my TV runs at 720p… I have a converter piece to transfer S-video to regular video cable… I assume that won’t help. ATI sells a piece that I can attach to my VGA output to transfer to component output, $30…. worth it?
