dual monitors not working

Hi,

I have a dell xps 600 with a nvidia GeForce 7800 GTX video card and am trying to hook up dual monitors.  When the computer is first started both monitors show the boot up process, but when window starts and the log on screen pops up only one of the monitors shows anything.  

When I go to the display properties there is only one monitor showing.

I am running windows media center.

Does anyone know how I can get both monitors working?  Let me know if you need any more info.

Thanks

This card came with my computer and i am not sure if it came with a vidoe card cd.  Is there somewhere i can download the nview app?
It comes with the video card driver download: http://www.nvidia.com/object/feature_nview.html
It actually did not come with nview application.  I was able to find it at the link below.
