SLI 6600GT's Problem with Monitor Sync

A friend has just got a new pc and is having trouble with getting it running smoothly. It's an AMD 64 3800+ running two nVidia 6600GTs Sli on Windows XP Home SP2. The problem is that the monitor keeps flicking to a black screen and then back to Windows again as though it is looking for another source. The monitor is an LG L1980Q 19" LCD and the problem happens using the DSUB connection and the DVI, the only difference being that it reverts back to Windows in either Analogue or Digital source depending on which you use. The monitor drivers that came with it have been installed and the most recent Forceware drivers. There doesn't seem to be a pattern as to when it does it. It can switch 5 times in a minute and then be fine for an hour. The only thing I haven't tried that springs to mind is trying to connect from the second 6600. The problem persists whether Sli is enabled or not. Any suggestions?

Many Thanks In Advance

Chris
