most likely use the DVI to VGA adapter. The TV should have a VGA input. Not sure if that will produce HD quality signal but it'll work. Perhaps there is a DVI to HDMI converter out there?

Your card uses DVI and your HDTV has HDMI so you'll need a DVI-HDMI adapter. Of course you'll need to figure out another source for sound since DVI doesn't transfer sound.

VGA is analog so no you won't get a HD signal. That's no better than using composite( yellow/red/white ) |

Uhh, VGA can handle HD resolutions just fine. I use it on one of my xbox 360s to get 1080i.
You can run some monitors up to 2048x1536, far surpassing the 1080p spec. |
