    Check the Windows screen resolution - if it's 1920x1080, you have the FHD screen.

    I think Windows Media Player / Centre can use the TV card as a source. Maybe that means you want an MCE remote for it. Ideally a bluetooth one so that you don't have an IR receiver taking up a USB port and hanging off the side...

    Right click on the desktop and left click on "Screen Resolution." If it doesn't show 1920x1080, click on the drop down menu that displays the current resolution to see if your monitor is capable of displaying FHD.
