Use FS9 in windowed mode (press ALT+Enter) then under view, open a new view and drag it over to the second monitor and then stretch it to fit the screen then you can go back to full screen mode. Ive only done this once, so if I missed something, Im sorry. Also, theres a program called wideview that you may want to look into, Im not sure what it does exactly, but I know it is used for multiple monitors.

Alrot,
I know for using ALL ATI cards you need their main control panel to run split screens with graphics acceleration. Not sure how it would work with mixed video cards. I know in some cases the primary monitor will work with 3_D acceleration.... but the secondary won't.
Maybe someone else will chime in here.
best,
