Your receiver probably isn't passing enough stuff through to and from
the TV for the card to tell there is a connected device...

Have you tried pulling out all the "TwinView" stuff? I'd try pulling
the "TwinView" lines, the MetaModes line, and the "SecondMonitor"
lines, then set 30-50 and 60 for Monitor0, along with the rez you want
the TV to run at.
