Installed my new Nvidia MSI N560GTX TI Twin Froser II yesterday, great card with great performance

But now the problem:

The card has 3 video outputs, Dual-link DVI x 2. Mini HDMI x 1
I have 2 normal monitors attached to the DVI connectors and my TV to the HDMI connector.

The 560GTX can only use 2 monitors at once. For my normal use it is no problem and I use both DVI connectors. But sometimes I want to game on my TV. To change the monitor setttings I have to go to the config screen, disable monitor 2 (secondary monitor) and enable monitor 3 (TV). This takes some steps to do and what I want is an utility that can do this with one click of a button.

I already checked DisplayFusion and Actual Multiple Monitors but I can't find an option in those programs to do that for me.

Somebody knows a solution for this problem?

I know about setting up hotkeys for settings on my ATI card but I don't know if it is the same for NVIDIA cards, should be but I've never had one so i don't know. Did you look for hotkeys on either of those programs?

@pbanj might know more as i haven't had a new Nvidia card since my GTX 285 (this GT 430 doesn't count) but it's not something that can be done from the control panel last time i checked.

i have only ever used 2 monitors, but it shouldnt be hard to write a script that you can run to do it for you, if i was able to code(without going cross eyed) i would try to make one
