Hi gents. I can't set dual monitor. I only set 1 monitor at a time and the other one remain black(with no signal). I don't have even the option to select the dual view.I also used my TV but i was not lucky enough to run them both as clone or dual. I tried to solve the problem via registry as suggested in this forum but it didn't work. I'll appreciate your help in this regard?
Win XP SP2 Nvidia GeForce4 MX440 w/AGP8X AMD 2400+ 1.99GHZ HD 80GHz RAM 1024MB CTX 701B 17" monitors Flat 21" LG TV with RCA input

i don't have any personal experience running the mx 440 but the typical way you would get dual display working on the nvidia cards is to first make sure both displays are powered up when the machine is booted. then run "setup.exe" from the driver pack, reboot, check your device manager to make sure there aren't any unknown video devices or conflicts and then use the driver options to manage your displays.
i've used a number of different nvidia cards and my experiences with them have run the gamut from easy to rather difficult...depending on the card and the hardware config of the machines.

Yesterday I got GeForce2 Mx400 64Mb , set it up as a secondary in less then twenty minutes with newest Nvidia(ForceWare 71.89) drivers and everything seems to work fine.
Try this: 1. install Mx440 card (in a case, not drivers) 2. Remove old drivers 3. Restart win 4. Install new drivers 5. Restart win 6. Expand desktop to other monitor/s
my setup: P4 3.2 Win XP SP2 Nvidia GeForce6800 AGP Nvidia GeForce4 MX400 64MB PCI Triple Monitor Setup
