    I run dual monitors. SW opens on the right screen. The splash screen
    appears on the left. SW is up and running the splash screen remains on
    top of whatever application it happens to write over. Anybody else
    seen this?

    Interesting. I've never seen this, up through 2007 sp5.0 (on Nvidia). Also,
    SW opens on the same monitor the splash screen opens on. I wonder if this
    has to do with SW opening on the monitor that isn't "primary". I know this
    is switchable in the NVidia drivers, but I can't remember where. Anyhow,
    another variable to be eliminated...

    Dale,

    I should have mentioned that and I am sure that is what TOP is
    seeing. My duals are set so SW does not open on the primary monitor.
    The splash screen likes to hang around over on the primary monitor.

    Cheers,

    Anna

    SW is on #2, the spalsh is on #1. It is a real pain because frequently
    it will block an unrefreshable window with information on it, i.e., a
    dos window. Obliterates excel too.

    I think I'll put my snowshoes on and go for a scrunch.
