I've no idea as to that particular tv.  In general you want in order of
best to worst.

1) DVI connections at the full resolution of your TV's DLP element
running non interlaced, but that may not work due to DVI limitations.

2) If the previous doesn't then you might try a plain VGA connection at
the full resolution, or as close as you can handle.  (1920x1080p)?

3) DVI interlaced at 1920x1080i or DVI with ~720p.  I'm not sure which
will be better here..

In general find a way to use a better connection than S-video if you
have a TV that fancy.  Component is another options, but using DVI or
regular VGA is probably the way to go.  This is not a new topic, so I
rather suspect a search of old messages might be useful..

I did search, but didn't come up on a lot of stuff.  Maybe i just didn't search with the correct words.  I find some stuff, but not really specifics on how DVi works and stuff.  Sorry if i'm wasting time, i really do try to search before asking.  In fact that's why i don't email a lot, most of my questions are answerd first by searching.  I still have that sound issue that sucks, but hopefully my new mobo from newegg will fix that.
