A: 

I suppose you are talking about monitors/TV's ?

You can make a winform application with a big button saying 'TV CONNECTED' when the user switches to the TV :-)

If the only connection to the PC is just the VGA connector, you are out of luck. You could always implement an infrared sensor connected to a serial port to read infrared signals from the remote control (whenever the user clicks it).
