XF86Config

Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
# BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Option "NODDC" "1"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "tv"
Option "IgnoreDisplayDevices" "dfp"
VideoRam 64000

Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
# Identifier "TV"
Device "nvidia"
Monitor "My Monitor"
Option "TwinView" "true"
Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "60"
Option "MetaModes" "1024x768,1024x768; 800x600, 800x600; 640x480, 640x480"
Option "TVStandard" "NTSC-M"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT, TV"

Worked for me....

Notice the (Option "TVStandard" "NTSC-M")
If your TV uses PAL, change it to PAL.....
