Quote from just21:

Use an nvidia nvs 420 or 450 instead of the built in graphics and matrox.

That's what I'm thinking as well. Often times depending on the PC when you have onboard graphics plus an add-in card it will disable the onboard graphics. You **might** be able to change that in the BIOS settings but that could be your conflict. \

It is really strange that some launchpad windows stay and others don't. Maybe take the 5 minutes to write down each of your saved windows and create a new launchpad profile. There should be a default launchpad view I think under tools or somewhere in the dropdown. Just hit BLP and then on the main window just find the settings and create a new view from the default profile (NOT FROM THE PROBLEM ONE or else you may just duplicate your issue).

Unless your launchpad is crazy it will only take 2-3 minutes to write down each of the windows (or do a giant 4-monitor screen shot) and just rebuild a new one.

If that doesn't work I would try disabling the onboard graphics and using either two dual or one quad add-in video cards.

Just an FYI....

For those of you that enjoy using Nvidia's free "NView" software that allows you to stretch your applications across multiple screens, Nvidia is now ONLY supporting "NView" on Windows 7 OS for those using NVS Quadra graphics cards.

The GeForce series is still being supported for NView on XP operating systems. But GeForce based graphics cards are not able to use "NView" on Windows 7 operating systems.

Issue resolved - it seems to have sorted itself out after rebooting the PC overnight.
