So I've been fighting with this for probably a good week (I REALLY want a virtual pinball). Visual Pinball is a pain, from what I've read from dribbled information from forums, if you want to run visual pinball (the old emulator) as dual screen, it HAS to be run through a frontend like hyperspin, and I believe you have to manually configure position/scale, which is a pain in the ass (which I still don't understand how it works).
So then I read that future pinball is a little easier (and you don't need hyperspin to make it work). Started it up as always, this time with my 37" LCD TV hooked up to it. Can't understand why the option to do 2nd screen isn't available (greyed out). Read some more forums, nothing. Then I think.. "I can select two displays in nvidea settings, but I can't select primary, and it doesn't show the 2 monitors in windows setting"
So I go download the latest drivers for my Geforce 8400 GS card, and low and behold.. I can select primary display, I get the checkbox in future pinball to select backbox on secondary display. After about 20 minutes of tweaking settings (choosing primary, selecting rotation, etc), I finally get pinball working on 2 monitors:
