Hello,
I just installed another Nvidia card today and both are having the same issue. They detect the secondary LCD monitor but will not display anything on it. Any experts out there?

To add more details. One computer is running Windows XP and the card was an 8400GS. The other computer is running Windows 7 and the card is 8600GT. Both are using the latest drivers from Nvidia. All screens, cables, and computers are in full working order. For one of them I swiched in an ATI 3450 and both screens work without a problem. Put the Nvidia back in and only one of the two displays will work (Yes I carefully removed and installed drivers).
