I got a new Toshiba TV for my computer which has turned out to be a big mistake, it is definitely compatible with a PC VGA input but certainly not made for it. It's impossible to get a crisp sharp picture. But I can't complain, it's usable and doesn't look too bad.
One of the first things I faulted it for was the terrible banding effect in games which I had never seen before getting this TV. Usually with darker shades or near-black, colours don't blend together properly and instead produce ugly lines between each colour shade. Most noticeable in Skyrim loading screens where the smoke rises from the bottom of the screen, it used to be normal and smoke-like where the shades blended together, but now the shades are abrupt and edged. Also seen in Minecraft in any dark place, shades don't blend well - they just jump from light to dark with no blending in between, with those jagged borders between each shade. These are just two examples but I see them everywhere.
It's also seen in videos too, especially if they're set in a dark place.
One day I had free time and the house to myself so I thought I'd hook the computer up to the big TV to get away from that horrible banding effect (I've done this before and always got a beautiful picture on the big TV). This is where I found out that it wasn't the TV causing it because the banding effect is now also very visible on the big TV too (Sony).
It did definitely start happening when I got the Toshiba TV, it never happened before that. So could the TV have done something to the computer?
I've tried rolling back my graphics drivers but that doesn't seem to have helped so I restored them to the latest version. I've found lots of people complaining about the issue but absolutely no solutions given.
I'm sorry that I can't get any screenshots but the thing is my print screen function isn't working at all. I press print screen and there's a short pause as if it's thinking, but nothing is pasted to the clip board. So none, sorry.
