2. the screen text is poorly reproduced, looking blurry, assume that this has something to do with the resolution issue.

For #1, it's likely because of overscan. Basically if you use your native res. the tv set's overscan causes the edges of the display to be cut off. If you change the resolution, #2 results.

Best I can recommend is a long visit to the Home Theater Computers sub-forum at AVS Forums. Search on overscan, nvidia, etc. until you find your answer.
