dual monitor setup problems... help.

Hi all,

(Arch 0.8 & NVIDIA drivers)
I'm having some troubles setting up a dual monitor set-up on my machine... every time I save the settings after configuring them in the NVIDIA control panel they don't seem to save when I start the OS!  I've also messed with the config file, so how do I set it back.  At the mo it picks up the CRT monitor only & not the LCD.

There are Two monitors hooked to it, one LCD (main DVI) & the other CRT (to the right of the LCD).  I want the LCD one to be the primary one.

LCD spec:

CRT spec:

Thanks for you help & expertise here.
