I just got a new monitor, the samsung 226cw, and I have a dell 1800fp. Up until now, I had been using my hp f1703 with my dell in dual-monitor mode (two desktops). However, after installing my driver for the 226cw and removing the hp, my computer only sees the Samsung and not the dell that is also attached. I have a 7600gt, and it has been fully updated. I have tried reinstalling drivers, but nothing works. They both use DVI. Nvidia control panel also only sees my Samsung. Any ideas?

Force detection does not see it either.

try setting it back to 1 monitor system
unplug the samsung.
just plug the dell in by itself.
reboot and see if it detects the dell at all
if it does, then reset it as a 2 monitor system and plug the samsung back in. see if its detected
if it doesnt then plug the samsung back in and reboot. you shouldnt be stuck with 1 monitor. good luck.
