Fujitsu L22-1W display and GeForce 9600M GT

Hello geeks.

Is there any way I can force 1920 * 1200 (or 1080) resolution, using this hardware: Fujitsu Scaleo L22-1W display and GeForce 9600M GT GPU. Native resolution for this display is 1680 * 1050 at 59 Hz.

I am building a HTPC system using a spare HP Pavilion dv7 laptop, basically the same specs than those I've listed in my system specs. I would like to use it with two displays, the mentioned L22-1W and and a fullHD plasma TV from laptops HDMI out, desktop duplicated not extended, laptops own display disconnected because this GPU allows max two displays at the same time.

Problem is this duplicated desktop. This GPU allows a FullHD resolution ONLY when a HDMI device is the only display connected, or when multi display settings are on extended desktop. If I choose duplicate desktop, it allows the HDMI device resolutions only up to the max of that second display, in this case 1680 *1050.

If this is not possible, I'll buy a new display with FullHD resolution. I just want first to test if I could make this system from spares I already have.

If you try forcing a higher resolution then the monitor supports you can cause damage to the monitor, but I guess you know that - i tried with my old Mitsubishi monitor, and it was scarry even, the screen was totally out of wack, wouldnt recommend it at all. I t was so bad I didn't even try to adjust the screen size and quickly reverted back to the old resolution.

Yes, I know. I'm willing to "sacrifice" this monitor, to be able to test if it works.
