What are the alternative motherboards I could use to avoid this problem?  
Currently my system uses this one: 
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16813136016
It's a DFI C51PV-M2.  I bought it because it had all the ports that I could 
ever want for my old CRT TV and it has connecters for flat screens (if I were 
ever to get one) and monitors and digital audio out as well as all the disk 
drive connectors.  

I just looked at newegg and I see GeForce 7050PV motherboards, but I don't 
know anything about them:

Does DFI/nVidia know about this problem?  Will there ever be a BIOS or any 
other resolution?

Thanks for any input.

John
