I use multi mon, but not via winxp so I may not be on track with this but,
Have you checked any nvidea driver utility settings to insure the nvidea
monitors are enabled?
In my nvidea dual view there is a seperate entry under display devices for
dual view.
ie Display devices lists, Dual View and my Nvidea card.
Have you tried the nvidea card, alone, to see if it functions in multi
monitor mode?
