Hello. I have a MacMini (2.4 Core 2 Duo) recently connected to 2 Dell E197FP screens. The main screen works fine (HDMI to VGA) but the second screen is blank (Mini DVI to VGA) even though it is recognised in Displays and I can set the resolution. Any help? Thanks in advance.

I should also point out that until I changed to two monitors the Mini DVI port worked fine with a single monitor. I have also checked that both monitors work on their own through the HDMI port and the Mini DVI port. Thanks.
I solved it myself with a trip to the computer shop.
It seemed to be the chain of connectors coming out of the Mini Display Port (not Mini DVI as mentioned previously) to the monitor. I was using a MDP to DVI/DVI to VGA chain. I've just bought a MDP to VGA and it now works fine.
