Unable to enable dual displays in Windows 2000

I've a Radeon 9200 SE card running on Win2K SP4 and connected to 2 displays.
When I bring up "Display Properties->Settings", it only shows 1 monitor
instead of the no. 1 and no. 2 monitors as expected. I was able to simulate
this on my laptop with a Radeon 9000 and WinXP SP2 by changing the value in
the registry word "DisableDualDisplays". I can't find this in Win2K and when
I added it manually, it doesn't work either. Thanks for your help.
 
Might seem like a dumb question but did you install the Radeon drivers?

I am having the same problem with my D600. The only news "bad" I have found
in my search is that w2k does not have this feature. But, this is not true
because I have people that I work with on a desktop w2k machine with dual
monitors. I think it is a driver issue between w2k-dell-ati.
