How do i change the screen resolution on a Sharp Aquos LC37D43U to work with xbox 360?

I cant seem to find where on the television or on the xbox 360 the correct place where i can change the resolution. The xbox is currently playing on 480p (i saw that number flash on the screen once), but the tv supports 720p/1080i. How do i change the resolution so i can get the games in high definition? As a point of reference, i do not have the hdmi connector (not supported by my xbox 360, and all the component cables are connected correctly). I am also using the xbox 360 as my dvd player, so i'm guessing the resolution will improve the quality of those as well.



Also, my standard analog cable (no digital or HD box) is producing a poor picture on the TV. Is this due to the resolution or just due to the poor signal? Can anything be done to make it clearer (besides the obvious of buying a digital or HD box)?

First of all you do not have to change anything on your TV. You have to do it from your Xbox 360 Dashboard. First, go to the last %26quot;blade%26quot; which is labelled, System. From there, go to Console Settings. Then go to Display, and from there just change the resolution to 1080i. Remeber that you have to move the switch on your Component cable from TV to HDTV.

As for the poor picture quality, if you dont have Cable or Satellite, then the problem is due to poor signal. If you do have cable or satellite then i suggest checking the resolution settings from your TV or just getting better analog cables (I used to have the same problem so I bought analog cables of better quality). Well I hope this helps.How do i change the screen resolution on a Sharp Aquos LC37D43U to work with xbox 360?
Go to the System Blade and select Console Settings:



Display



Change your display output settings from this screen. Display settings include screen resolution and screen dimension (or aspect ratio, either standard or widescreen).



For high-definition viewing you'll need a high-definition TV or monitor, as well as the Xbox 360 HDMI Cable, the Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable, or the Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable. For more information, see Connect to TV or HDTV.



* HDTV Settings: Choose between 480p, 720p, 1080i, or 1080p output resolution, depending on the native resolution of your TV or monitor. The default setting is 480p (enhanced definition, or EDTV).



In some cases you can select an %26quot;Optimal Resolution%26quot; button, which appears only when Xbox supports the native resolution of the TV or monitor and automatically applies the best setting.



If you are using VGA or DVI, you must choose from among the following output resolutions: 640 x 480, 848 x 480, 1204 x 720, 1280 x 720, 1280 x 768, 1280 x 1024, 1360 x 768, and 1920 x 1080.
