Yep, there is a check box for this: Control Panel->Display Properties->Settings->Monitor, then check the box saying Hide modes this monitor cannot display.

I have only used this on CRTs so I don't know if it shows up on LCDs as well.

Err, with the new nVidia drivers, can't you just make a custom resolution........?
