I am late to this thread, so forgive if this has already been answered.

What NVIDIA driver version are you using?

I ask because I noticed that the 190.18 driver does not do overscan on 
the S-Video output (at least not in the same way as the 185 and earlier 
drivers). As a result, I cannot use the 190.18 driver when connecting to 
my television using S-Video. However, overscan on HDMI appears to be fine.
