There is no such thing as an invalid argument with true premises and a true conclusion. An argument is valid if and only if its impossible for the premises to be true and the conclusion false. So, if you have two true premises and a true conclusion, you have a valid argument. I think you might be talking about soundness in #2.

1. All boys are males.

All men are males.

Therefore all boys are men.



2. All boys are males.

All men are males

But boys are not men.
