Dual monitors on Ti4200

Ok I seem to be having some issues with getting dual monitors to work properly with my Ti4200.

Monitor 1: Veiwsonic 19" LCD Widescreen DVI
Monitor 2: Samsung 19" LCD VGA

I have updated to latest driver from Nvidia and when I go into the Nvidia Control Panel and click on "Display" then "Multiple Monitors". I've selected both clone and horizontal span both with no luck. When I select either one, monitor #2 will show breifly then switch off again. If I reboot the computer and leave both hooked up it defaults to the monitor #2 and I can not see the login prompt and have to manually restart the machine and unplug monitor #2 so that monitor #1 becomes active again.

Kinda stumped on this one, did some searching via Google and did not find to much on this, any suggestions would be helpful.

Yes I want to span the desktop, but tried to clone as well to see if I could get that at least to work. If I remember right, not at home, only one monitor is shown in windows display settings, and if I reboot then I have the issue of not being able to login as it only enables the VGA monitor. Nvidia control panel detects the monitor in the VGA slot but when i select span horizontal it activates #2 and #1 gets diabled, so I do not accept the changes and go back to just #1 monitor.

Thanks so far..
