you could purchase a cheap video card to install into the pc and disable the onboard graphics.
found this card for $36 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121181

It will run at 1024x768 if you use the controls to take it out of widescreen 16:9 mode and put it in standard 4:3 mode.

That looks to me to be a simple selection with the remote control. Download the manual and read it.

Are you sure it doesn't let you define custom ones in the properties panel??

yep i am pretty sure but if you can please tell me exactly how to do it i'll check.
i dont get it why does it give limited options if it supports 1280x768 why wouldnt it give me 1280-720 option. is it driver related or is it a hardware problem? thanks |

On my laptop, I go into computer properties (from the desktop right click), and it allows me to preset screen resolutions.

Yes of course but can you manually put the exact resolution you want?
Or do you move the slider and you then depend on the settings the computer will give you? |
