FSX on two monitors - one video card

I'm trying to run FSX on two monitors with the two outputs on my one video
card. My specs are:

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700
ASUS EN8800GTX PCI Express Video Card
ASUS P5N-E nForce 650i motherboard
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB SDRAM
etc..

The first monitor is a DLP projector at 1024x768 and the second monitor is a
19" ViewSonic CRT also at 1024x768. I'm using the 101.41 drivers, but it
did this with the 100.65 drivers too.

The problem is, the game loads fine, but when I try to get in the plane to
fly the primary screen just keeps blinking and the secondary monitor goes
blank. FS2004 works fine. If I run just one display, FSX works. Is it a
driver issue? Is there anything I can do to make it work on both displays
like FS2004 does?

Thanks
