Yeah I did have 640x480 working fine on mine with an old ATI 9500 + component dongle, there was about 2 lines chopped off at the bottom which I had to use PowerStrip to fix, it was windows that was chopped not the TV, .. im trying to pickup a newer card that doesnt use a dongle like you are using, maybe ill run into those issues then but I wont know til next week.
I know if I adjust it too far left ill get some distortion, like wavey jittery distortion around the middle/left of the screen.. as for the bowing you can fix that with PARABOLA, TRAPEZIUM options in the service menu, I just messed with that til it was straight mostly all around and then had to go adjsut the H and V size again to fit it.
Chunce: Are you using the same TV in the topic? It sounds like your TV might not be as forgiving, you could still return it or exchange it if you purchased it recently, they wont know you touched the service menu unless you tell them you did.
Here are some of my settings... the sizes arent proper as im in a video card limbo at the moment but its close.
H. POS. - 16
H BLK L - 6
H BLK R - 2
V. SIZE - 69
V. POS - 2
V. LIN - 11
VS. CORR - 11
V. COMP - 3
R. BIAS - 127
G. BIAS - 156
B. BIAS - 188
R. DRV - 80
G. DRV - 10
B. DRV - 66
BRI CENT - 70
BRI MAX - 96
H. SIZE - 41
PARABOLA - 16
TRAPEZIUM - 45
COR. TOP - 6
COR. BTM - 8

I am glad you have it working better for you, now to hope that MAME fits the screen properly as well... thats another battle. As far as I know the ATI Dongle wont allow anything above 640x480 on a SDTV but the new cards seem to do it.
Recieved my happ 27" bezel today (from ebay, twistedquarter) and cut it to fit, looks great and fits great, will post pics soon
comparing my R. DRV to rubberpoultry, his is set to 3 and mine is still on the default 80, no wonder theres so much bleeding red :o
Johnbz:
I also have a 27" Insignia I am trying to use. But the image on the screen seems to stretch on the top and bottom and there is bowing on the tv. Any way to fix these problems on the service menu?
jWin:
Yes by adjust V.Size and PARABOLA + TRAPEZIUM you should be able to fix those issues, H.Size if youre image is stretched left and right.
Be sure to write down your previous values before altering them because once altered you will not be able to reverse the effects unless you record the values.

Please post some pics of this. I am most interested in how close the curvature of the tube matches the curvature of the bezel - does the bezel sit flat on the screen in all places? Or are there gaps under the bezel?
Also, how close does the opening in the bezel match the size of the screen? How much larger or smaller is the bezel compared to the screen in both the vertical and horizontal?
Thanks,
Rick
