I found a work around where you can have BOTH dual screen AND you can change your resolution. Your post helped me figure this out so thanks!

Here's what I did in the nvidia-settings (took several iterations to get this correct),

1. Load the Nvidia-Settings
2. Detect Displays
3. In the configure screen, turn TwinView off like you mentioned above.
4. Select "Use separate X windows" I think is the option.
5. Check the xinerama, this is required if you want to be able to move your windows from one screen to the next otherwise X treats this as two different windows (per the option above).

Then I restarted X, I now have dual monitoring working AND was able to play counter-strike @ 1024x768.
