I run dual monitors under Win XP off a single, dual headed video 
card.  I use the Microsoft Color Control Panel Applet for XP to load 
the two profiles correctly at boot time.  One monitor is a CRT and 
one an LCD.  I do not know what Vista has done for dual monitor 
support but, as far as I know, this applet is the only way to get the 
seaparate profiles assigned and loaded under XP if you are using a 
single, dual headed video card.  It works.  I use the Spyder3 to 
build my profiles.

As an additional note, Lightroon 1.x does not handle dual monitors 
very well.  I saw that one of the things that will be in Release 2 is 
support for dual monitors.  R2 is in beta test now.  That would be 
nice as I am spoiled using a dual monitor under Photoshop CS3.  I use 
the CRT for my image area and park everthing else on the LCD.  With a 
22 inch CRT, that gives me a great working space.  Here is the LR

I hope this helps.
