Any difference choosing CPU for the PhysX processor instead of specifying GPU 1? And which driver version are you running?
 
Uninstall and then do a clean re-install of the nvidia drivers then try again. For how long does your screen go black? It's normal (for me anyway) for it to go black for 5-20 seconds.

Are the sli bridges properly installed and seated? Something to check.

Have you tried connecting to the tv via the first dvi port on the first card?

Set the physx option to 'Auto-select'.

Never tried using a tv but should be the same as a single monitor?
