Hello,
Thanks to my HDMI cable, I'm easily extending my laptop display to my Panasonic HD TV... I don't even have to mess around with the computer's options; I just switch the input on my TV when the cable is connected and everything displays automatically...
However, my computer desktop, as well as all the movies I watch (with VLC), don't go "full screen" on the TV; there's a good 5-6 inches of black around the image on the TV...
How can I solve this problem? I haven't found anything in the TV options...
My PC is an HP, and my graphics card is an Intel R 4 Series Express Chipset Family, and I'm working with Windows 7
THANK YOU THANK YOU :)
Configuration: Windows 7 / Firefox 3.6.3

Alright, I'm getting started...
First, I use the extended desktop mode
Then, I know that my TV is not FULL HD...
Well, when I display my PC on the TV, the resolution doesn't change 1280x800...
But if I manually change my resolution to 1280 x 720... THERE we go, my desktop appears full screen on my TV... :) and the movies I play too :):)
Thank youuuuu!! Sometimes, the things that seem so complicated to us are actually very simple :)
