Adjusting The Desktop Display - HP Home Theater System User Manual

Adjusting the Desktop Display

Some tasks on the HP Digital Entertainment Center require
that you leave Media Center and use the Windows XP
desktop. Because Windows XP is not specifically
designed for TV, some messages and dialogs on the
desktop may be difficult to read on some TVs.
Lowering the display resolution can make messages and
dialogs easier to read by enlarging the text.
This procedure is an example only and may vary
depending on your TV/display type, supported formats,
and video out connections. You may have to perform the
procedure more than once to optimize the image.
This setup procedure is advanced. Knowledge
of video concepts and computer terms is
helpful. Follow the steps carefully. Your TV/
display may require settings and
configurations different than those listed in
the following procedures.
