HDMI from PC to Samsung 32 HDTV and HDTV won't open apps from taskbar

I connect my PC to my 32 Samsung SMART HDTV via HDMI cable. Screen on TV won't fit, is bigger resolution than PC. When I click on an app from the TV taskbar, it won't open; the PC side works fine. This was all working fine last week. Nothing that I know has changed. Cable?

I'm thinking it's a resolution problem. Check in your TV manual what resolutions it supports...and then go to your PC and set it for that. Pick a common one like 1080p.

Thx, Jay. I will try that. I have been using the TV now for months with no problems and all of a sudden it started this.
