Solution
You need to use the HDTV section in your video control panel (Intel, AMD, or NVidia).

Your setup should go like THIS:
1) NTSC_1080p@60Hz, then
2) adjust OVERSCAN

You should have the HDTV setup as an EXTENDED monitor as well or you could have issues. Another option is to ONLY use the HDTV screen.
