  DVI Detective
The DVI Detective is a unique and useful little device that reads and stores a computer's digital video information (EDID) in order to simplify the installation process for users who are extending a digital projector or plasma display away from the computer.
Once installed and connected, the DVI Detective continually transmits the EDID to the computer, essentially "tricking" the computer into thinking that the video is present, even when it is not connected.
EDID - Extended Display Identification Data is a VESA standard data format that contains basic information about a monitor and its capabilities, including vendor information, maximum image size, color characteristics, factory pre-set timings, frequency range limits, and character strings for the monitor name and serial number.

 DumpEDID - Dump EDID information
DumpEDID is a small console application that extract the EDID ("Extended display identification data") records from your computer, analyze it, and dump it into the console window.
EDID record provide essential information about your monitor: manufacture week/year, monitor manufacturer, monitor model, supported display modes, and so on...
You can also get the EDID records of a remote computer, if you login to this computer with administrator rights.

EDID- Extended Display Identification Data are data that are sent from a connected DVI receiver to the DVI transmitter during the boot process.
The EDID information is the critical issue for DVI matrices because the transmitter and the receiver must be connected during the boot process to exchange the proper informatin.
The EDID information is transmitted over the DDC (Display Data Channel) on pin 6 and 7 on the DVI connector (see DVI Connector).

 VESA Standards FAQs
A: +5V is needed as a power source for the DDC and EDID circuits of a display monitor when the host is attempting to read the monitor's EDID data and the monitor's own local power supply is not yet turned on.
(The EDID and DDC circuits in a display monitor should always be powered from the monitor's own local power supply whenever it is available.) The E-DDC Standard does not directly define or constrain other possible uses for the +5V output, provided that the specified loading limits are not exceeded.
For example, when the display monitor is powered on, +5V may be used as a logic signal to control display power states, i.e., signaling to the display whether or not the host PC video port is active, so that the monitor can decide when to go into a reduced power mode.

 Extended display identification data Information
EDID is defined by a standard published by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA).
EDID structure 1.0 was defined in 1994; version 1.1 followed in 1996, then 1.2, and 1.3 in 2000.
The EDID is often stored in the monitor in a memory device called a serial PROM (programmable read-only memory) or EEPROM (electrically erasable PROM) that is compatible with the I²C bus.

 Fixing the nVIDIA EDID Problem
EDIDs were designed to allow simple Plug ‘N Play operation when using a digital display connection.
I asked nVIDIA about this too and their main reason for enforcing the EDID and its limitations was because they wanted to protect the average consumer from frying his or her monitor accidentally.
Approximately a year ago there was an issue that caused the EDID of the host monitor to become corrupted and would effectively prevent the monitor from exiting the Power-Save state.

EDID, or Didn’t E? When I was configuring a Mac mini for one of my coworkers, I tried connecting it to the DVI input on my Sharp Aquos TV.
Did some asking around and learned that Sharp’s native EDID information (the info which is sent from newer VESA compliant monitors, to tell a computer what resolutions they support) does not include 1366 x 768.
He is even willing to send me a custom-programmed one with a modified EDID for my Sharp which would support that resolution, and with the ‘reprogram’ chip removed.

 Wrongly rejected interlaced modes from EDID? - nV News Forums
This answers your question about the native res (it is in the EDID but in a convoluted way and it seems unwise to rely on it for checks and calculations, see it as a hint only).
As I said before, the EDID protocol has made the classic mistake (quite common in the early days of PC) to use the minimum number of bits to specify information.
Maybe the screen manufacturer forgot to subtract 60, put the value 60 in the EDID and NVIDIA adds 60 (which is correct) with 120 as the result.
