Since I can display my computer on the tv with my gf2 I was wondering if I could set it to be in tv resolution instead of either 800x600 or 640x480. This should theoretically make things more clear (at least as clear as they can be on a tv). So, Any programs? Registry tweaks? or Driver file changes?

I think TV out cards are set up for one resolution and can't be changed. Face it, trying to use a TV in place of a monitor is futile. Yhe display is very poor because of the poor resolution of a TV set. It's somewhere around 300x300.
