Monitors

I just bought a 20 inch widescreen Dell Lcd monitor to go with my Sony computer. The Dell monitor says I need to put it on a 1680 X 1050 resolution but thats not an option under my resolution settings. Therefore, the pictures on my new monitor are very stretched out. Dell said to call Sony for updated drivers and I called Sony & they said there are no updated drivers . Are there other options for me to get the correct resolution? Thanks!!

id like to hook up my new 32 inch lcd hdtv to my computer and use that as the monitor, but ive heard that it can a) blow your video card and b) not look good unless you have specific hardware.
id like to know what i would need to do this, i know my tv has hdmi, rca, component, vga, and a few others, but will i need a new video card, i probably will because my computer is sort of old, what would work best for me

Besides difference in power supply (power cord, different voltage), is there any other technical difference between TFT monitors sold in the US and those sold in Europe or Asia?

Could they be sold interchangeably in each geographic location?

I want to play my Xbox on my computer but when I plug it into my computer it doesn't show. Do I have to open a program? Should I change some settings?
My computer does have the "Red", "Yellow", and "White" cable on the back, usually that means you can plug in stuff. But when I plug in my Xbox and turn it on Nothing Shows...
Am I doing something wrong?
I have a WindowsXPHomeEdition Computer, Its brand New, And The Product Number is: RC650AA-ABA
And My Product Name Is: a1647c

OK, I have two monitors, one is a Flat screen CRT and the other is a standard CRT but it has a higher refresh rate (up to 85) the one I'm using now...the flat screen CRT only goes up to 60, which one would provide me with better graphics in games, photo editing, movies, etc...? the reason I'm asking is I got a sweet new graphics card ;)

I just got 2 new LCD monitors. I have heard from colleagues that LCD's are not as accurate color-wise as CRT's - so I am considering keeping one in the loop (1 LCD and 1 CRT - I run dual display). I do a lot of print work and I want to be sure I have accuracy as far as color. The problem is my 19" CRT is massive and I would rather use an LCD for space on my desk.

i would like to know if you can select an area of the screen to be projected, not the whole screen. like if you wanted to show a part of a video but not the notes or lists on the screen.

Last weekend I had a short power outage. My computer was turned on when this happened. After, my computer turned on with no problem, but my monitor was another story. The light came on in the front when I turned it on, but nothing would display on the screen. I tried another monitor, and that one worked fine. Then I tried my original monitor again, and it started working.

For a few days afterwards, my monitor would randomly stop working at times. Don't laugh... but simply beating on the top of the monitor would eventually get it to work again. One time, the screen came back but had a lot of red distortion, although it disappeared eventually.

For the past few days, I haven't had any real problem with the monitor, but once in a while the screen will flicker with a thick line for a split second.

Any thoughts on what is wrong with my monitor? Should it be replaced?

You said that lcd is for flat screen. This may be an ignorant question to you, but there are not stupid questions. Would they work on flat screen computers? Do not laugh, I am just a poor old granny. Ok, not that old.
