I've found nice examples using C++ (http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/resswitch.aspx), but not in C#.
Can someone help, please?
Edit: The exact function that list the video modes is:
BOOL CVideoModes::GetAvailableVideoModes(CAvailableVideoModes& modes)
{
modes.SetSize(0, 5);
int i=0;
DEVMODE dm;
while (EnumDisplaySettings(NULL, i, &dm))
{
CVideoMode thismode(dm.dmBitsPerPel, dm.dmPelsWidth,
dm.dmPelsHeight, dm.dmDisplayFrequency);
modes.SetAtGrow(i, thismode);
++i;
}
modes.FreeExtra();
return (i>0);
}
But sincerelly I cannot understand that C++ code. Where I can find that "thismode" function?
If you mean video modes are available resolutions, try to invoke EnumDisplaySettingsEx
details can be found here:

small program that lists available resolutions:
using System;
using System.Linq;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using System.Windows.Forms;
namespace ListResolutions
{
class Program
{
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
public static extern bool EnumDisplaySettings(
string deviceName, int modeNum, ref DEVMODE devMode);
const int ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS = -1;
const int ENUM_REGISTRY_SETTINGS = -2;
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct DEVMODE
{
private const int CCHDEVICENAME = 0x20;
private const int CCHFORMNAME = 0x20;

{
DEVMODE vDevMode = new DEVMODE();
int i = 0;
while (EnumDisplaySettings(null, i, ref vDevMode))
{
Console.WriteLine("Width:{0} Height:{1} Color:{2} Frequency:{3}",
vDevMode.dmPelsWidth,
vDevMode.dmPelsHeight,
1 << vDevMode.dmBitsPerPel, vDevMode.dmDisplayFrequency

i++;
}
}
}
