I would find out the res of your tv, then define a custom resoulution for that using the nvidia software (if your res is 1366 x 768 you will have to use 1360 as the numbers need to be divisible by 8 apparently).

my sony does it in revers : as in wont fill the whole screen. forunately there's an option to expand it so i sorted it. but when i tried with VGA it was actually seemingly better. i'd already run the HDMI cable though - so i've stuck with that.
