Hello, this is my first post. I've searched for threads on this topic but have found nothing.
I have a GEForce 6600 card with 2 DVI slots (as seen at this link):
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814150086
Anyways, I have 2 20" LCD monitors plugged into this video card. My other video card was on board and I disabled it so I could use the AGP card I installed. That went well.
I recently purchased the second monitor and configured settings through windows display and NVidia display settings. On both, the left monitor is primary and #1, and the right monitor is second and #2.
I have it set up for "extending desktop onto XXX monitor..."
The NVidia setting is for "dual view"
Anyways, I set this up, and I got the left monitor with the taskbar and a black right monitor to which I could move things.
I downloaded ultramon and used the smart taskbar.
So, why is it that when I turn my monitors off (to go to sleep) and then back on in the morning, only the primary display powers up and gives me a desktop?
It also does this when I restart. I checked the FAQ and found nothing. I am hoping this is something obviously fixable.
Thanks in advance!

I should also add that I am just a lowly poker player and I know very little about hardware.
So KISS. :)

My guess would be that this is an issue with the video card driver.
Do you still have the problem when you uninstall UltraMon?

Yes, I still have a problem when I uninstall Ultramon.
They're just not working. :(
I used DriverCleaner and reinstalled new drivers, and still nothing.

I made this thread at XFXforce.com. It describes my problem slightly better:
