ok, couldnt wait, had to try something, so I forked out and bought two BENQ GW2460 monitors.
It now all works without problems! So I guess it was either the age of the iiyama monitors, or the resolution I was trying drive them at (1600x1200 whereas the BENQ are both at 1920x1080).
I am now *almost* very happy, the only issues I see now are:-
1) the screen on the displayport connection (via DVI cable) has a slight tendency to go slightly dimmer then return to normal brightness. I can live with this, but, it would be good to know why.
2) occasionally (and I have just noticed this) when browsing it appears that the network connection "goes away" i.e. windows thinks it is connected, but, the browser (chrome in this case) thinks that there is no connection. I am not yet fully convinced this is the PR08, but I have yet to see this problem with the network connected directly to my laptop.
