>Why can't I just use DVI to VGA or HDMI to VGA?
You'll just have to test, like I said in >>9037096

>why does it have to be DP?
DP has just less limitations, plus the adapter does the work, so it's a safer bet to know it works.

>and how do I know which resolution works for me?
For starters, try deleting EVERYTHING in CRU for the adapter that goes to your CRT TV (NOT your main display) and copy this one exactly: >>9037094
Restart and try again. Make sure your TV is turned off while you reboot your PC or it send 31kHz modes to it.

>Sorry I don't know jack shit about refresh rates and resolutions
Just glad you didn't break anything.

Like take the checkbox away from >>9033483 1024x768 so Windows can't accidentally select a 31kHz+ mode.
Delete all the other modes you've rated too, from the Extension block also.

Try putting in the mode I mentioned about: >>9037094 under "Detailed resolutions" on the very top. Also click edit on the top/right and make sure under Range limits it's set to V rate 50 - 60 Hz and H rate to 15 - 15 kHz with max pixel clock 60 MHz, check the box that says Include if slot available and press OK.

If you want to add more modes, add them under the extension block, like for 224p and 288p, but first start with 240p and make sure that works, don't do too much at once, otherwise you won't know where the problem is if you have one, go step by step. Good luck.
