I would unregister your VMs (by right clicking on each one, and choosing close) from workstation, you can start workstation from the command prompt with the -t option e.g. (assuming installed in default location)

- c:\program files\vmware\vmware workstation\vmware -t

Run this again, and you will get a 2nd workstation window up.

You should then be able to start up your 2 VMs ("by choosing open an existing VM or team", and selecting the relevant vmx files) in these windows, and drag them to your different screens.
