Default NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX Controls

I have the above graphics card on my pc with dual outlets for a monitor and the tv.

Now before the ol'pc went Pete Tong and Jim sorted it for me i was able to adjust the screen size independantly for the tv (Samsung 1080p 46") and had it all tickedy booo....

I've tried to find the settings and have even checked for updated drivers/software etc... but there just doesn't seem to be the option there anymore

Its perfect on the monitor but too frick'in big on the tele

Any advice.....?

on my 8600gt (poo i know) in the nvidia control panel I have them pre set up as separate screens, with the res's preset for each. So I just right click the icon tray icon thing>nView display settings>single display>then choose the screen I want to use. If there are 2 different res's then AFAIK you cant have both at the same time. This can only be done if you run the same screen res on both screens.
