Dual monitor problem

I have two monitors hooked up to my GF3 Ti-500 with the latest detonators. One is through the standard VGA port and the other is through my DVI port with a converter. both monirots display the same image, the desktop is not streched. I enabled nView but that did not help anything. Only one monitor is shown in the Device Manager and Add/Remove hardware did nothing. Also there is is only one monitor picture in the display setting. How do I fix this?
-Thanks
 
that card does not support 2 monitors (dual display), it merely provides 2 different kinds of connections.
heres a quote : (see the highlighted)

"As you may recall from our September 2001 look at the new ATI Radeon 8500 and 7500 chipsets/cards, ATI has decided to make dual-display compatibility standard across its product line. Using a dual display is almost like having two computers in one: you can use it for comparing old and new versions of a document, perform drag-and-drop editing between documents, surf and read your e-mail, watch a movie and (pretend to) work at the same time, and so forth. Although all three of the Ti-series chips feature multiple display connectors (VGA and DVI-I for digital display panels, plus TV-out on two of the three chips), none of them support multiple monitors. That task is still relegated to the low-end GeForce2 MX series chipsets."
