360 display issue SOLVED

Hello all, I just picked up a new TV yesterday, a 720p 32" LCD 16:9. I have my Xbox 360 connected to it via component cables until I can afford an HDMI one. My current display settings are for 480p Widescreen. However, I'm getting black bars on the sides still instead of it filling up the screen. There's probably something stupid I overlooked, any advice?

    Why not set it to 720p?

    When you do, if you're using the Microsoft cables, make sure the little switch near where it plugs into your 360 is set to HDTV.

    Figured it out, I had to set every input in the TV menu to Widescreen.

    Mods please lock the thread.
