Welcome to Windrivers Burty

Did you tick the box to clone your desktop to the second monitor, while the second monitor was selected from the drop down box in display settings?

How have you connected the riva to the TV - what are the plugs on each end of the cable you have used?

Did you reboot the PC "after" you connected the television?
So that the video card sensed a signal from it.

Have you tried going into control panel to the nview nvidia applet and set it up there?
