Hi,
As mentioned on another thread I've been having some issues using an old TV as a second monitor. I managed to get a picture and it's actually not bad given the age of the TV, but so far I can only get 1024*768.

The TV's native resolution is 1366*768 but there's no option for that in either the Windows display settings. The AMD Radeon graphics driver software does have an option to create custom resolutions but it only seems to allow me to do that for my primary monitor.


My graphics card is an AMD Radeon R5. How do I get my PC to output at 1366*768?

Thanks!

N.B. I know someone will probably question the choice of monitor but I'm skint and I don't use the PC for 'proper' gaming so a decent monitor isn't a need. It's a long story...
 
Solution
Connection was the problem. I was using a USB- VGA adaptor which could only output at certain resolutions. Swapped it over with the monitor in the VGA and all sorted.
