Default Second monitor is not being recognized on startup

I have two monitors connected to an Nvidia Geforce 6700xl video card which
has previously worked fine. Now for some reason every time I start XP the
second monitor is not recognized. I f i use the Nvidia control panel to
configure it correctly then restart XP, the second monitor is recognized but
if I shutdown completely and reboot then the second monitor is not
recognized. Any body any ideas?
