Monitor is running in 1600 x 1200
My Tv is running in 1024 x 768 using a S-VHS connecting

I set my NVidia driver to use dual screen (monitor as primary) and have the TV to show
the upper left corner of my monitor. I disabled the scroll of display when mouse hits
border.

I set the Options = > Screen calibration = > GUI calibration to [0,0] - 1027,768, so MP is displayes in the upper left corner.

Under Options = > Screen calibration = > Screen calibration i set:
Upper left = 0,0
Lower right = 128,128

The lower right value caps at 128 but this isnt enough to get it right on the TV.
Upper left i would like to give a negative value as i would like to crop something of the picture as its is show on a old fashion TV.

Can i but any means change these value or do i have to go back switching the resolution forth and back when using the PC or TV, without compromising the resolution?

I found the crop function when watching live TV in the menu so this isnt a issue anymore. But my lower right is still off screen.
