am I missing something?

I'm still kind of confused on how to configure mame with my TV connected using a DVI to component adapter.  Here's my current mame.ini

I keep hearing people saying to disable hwstretch, but if I do that, the game doesn't fill the screen since I have my resolution set to 640x432.  I also tried installing soft-15hz and setting the resolution to auto, but the TV didn't appear to support whatever resolution mame was trying to set it to.  Right now, text is a little blurry which I'm assuming is due to hwstretch.  How is everyone else setting up mame with their component-connected TVs?  Thanks.
