I have a new monitor which I'm sharing between two computers: a laptop with Windows 7 (Win7 from now on) and a home assembled desktop with Windows Developer Preview (WinDev from now on).

Win7 recognizes the monitor resolution of 1920x1080, and many others. WinDev doesn't; the best resolution I get on that OS is 1600x1200.

Win7 has:

Mobile Intel 965 Express video
Generic PnP Monitor as monitor #2

WinDev has:

MSI NVidia 9600GT with 1Gb RAM video
Generic Non PnP Monitor

I'm using Belkin Flip USB to share the monitor between boxes

I installed Windows 7 x64, and I installed my Geforce 9400 GT driver, and it didn't recognize the TV. So I removed the driver, and the TV worked. Then I installed again, and it didn't work again. Generic Windows 7 TV-out support isn't so good, so how can I fix it? >>> More
