I know that the bible says that I am exempt from adultery if I remarry because she was unfaithful. I need to convince her because I love her and she loves me. It is just that small detail that holds her back. Biblical answers please.

unfortunatley you may not be able to change her beliefs... try showing her where you found your information ( depending on your religion ) or try talking to your priest/minister. Get her to go along with you to do the research. God will help him if you ask but, you have to do the footwork!

There is no biblical answer, Sorry.
If you were to stone her (Common practice in the bible) you would be a widower and that would make you free.
Just came to me. You are not the problem. Her indepenance is. If she were to be a widow or 'widow' it would almost me your duty to take her as your wife. Look it up, it is illustrated by the story of Ruth.
Taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Book_of_Ruth
In order to provide food for the two women, Ruth receives permission to glean in the fields of Boaz, Naomi’s kinsman. Naomi sends Ruth to ask protection from Boaz, who is a close relative. Boaz is attracted to Ruth, but informed her that there was a closer kinsman who had the first right to redeem the estate of Elimelech. It would be necessary for the closer kinsman to renounce his right before Boaz could proceed in the matter. Accordingly, Boaz meets with the closer kinsman and tells the kinsman of his right to redeem the estate and to marry Ruth. The kinsman does not want to marry Ruth nor would he want to yield Elimelech's property back to a child born from the union. The closer Kinsman takes off his shoe and hands it to Boaz which was the ritual way of showing that he waived his right to Elimelech’s property.
Boaz follows through on a plan to grant security (redemption) to the two women. Boaz marries Ruth and their child is “born to Naomi” (Ruth 4:17) which indicates that Elimelech’s line is continued and Naomi is blessed by Obed’s birth. The genealogy that concludes the book of Ruth, climaxes with the wonderful disclosure that Ruth of Moab is the great-grandmother of King David.

OP, you gave the correct biblical answer. If she can't handle it, look for another g/f who does understand the Bible.
Now, if your g/f is Catholic, then you have a problem, because the Catholic Church makes its own rules outside the Bible.

why dont you just use your own brain and common logic with her and then explain to her that in all reality once you divorced your ex you longer belong to that ex but to the woman you are inlove with. but i am trying to be fair minded about it since i see divorce to be more common amoung christians in america due to the fact that sex before marriage isnt allowed to start with. if your ex cheated on you then it has some thing to do with your personality or sexual preferences.
heres a little advice for ya go buy a porn video and learn about sexual things from it its good advice
