The HD 2400 sold by Dell does not allow you to extend your desktop to another monitor. This is unfortunate and sadly is a posted issue far too often. If you were to have the "normal" HD2400 (not manufactured to Dell's specs) it would have come with a DMS-59 output which would have allowed you to split into two separate DVI-D outputs with extended desktop capabilities. As you currently stand, you can only split your video output into two clones of the same image.
You will need a video card upgrade to do what you are aiming to do.
