I was forced to reinstall the NVIDIA drivers since the generic Microsoft Basic Display Adapter drivers would not recognize the second monitor. The problem with my remote connection giving a blank screen appears to only happen when the monitors are powered off. If monitors are powered on the NVIDIA NVS 310 drivers seems work fine when remotely connected.
