Hello there. Really great application, by the way.
I'm only on the fifth or sixth day of the trial period, and I am already pretty much convinced that I will purchase UltraMon. However I did just encounter a problem that I believe was caused by disabling the NVIDIA Desktop Manager. I am presently using two monitors, both ViewSonic: My primary is a 21.3" LCD monitor, and my secondary is a 19" widescreen LCD Monitor.
In the dual monitor properties of the NVIDIA Desktop Manager, there is a video setting that allows me to configure having all video automatically played in full screen mode on my secondary monitor. I use a TV tuner card and I also edit digital video that I capture from my camcorder, as well as streaming video from the Internet that I capture. Prior to installing UltraMon, any time I started playing a streaming video or something from the TV tuner card it would automatically appear in full screen mode on my secondary -- 19" -- monitor. Then I would open my applications, including anything for digital video editing, on my primary monitor.
This morning I started the TV tuner card, turned on a TV program, and instead of jumping to the secondary monitor in full screen mode, it opened on my primary monitor in full screen mode. And nothing I tried could get it out of full screen mode! I tried keyboard shortcuts, double clicking the left mouse button, right clicking the mouse, Ctrl-Alt-Del got me nowhere... I was basically stuck with the TV tuner card on in full screen mode on my primary monitor without any way to stop it. So I had to perform a hot reboot.
I could probably resolve this by enabling the NVIDIA Desktop Manager once again. However from what I understand that will pose conflicts with UltraMon.
Any advice?
Thank you for any help or assistance with this.

Does uninstalling UltraMon fix the problem?
In general UltraMon should work fine with the nView Desktop Manager, but there can be conflicts.

I can uninstall it and try. But it was working fine as configured right before I installed UltraMon.
I know I read that I needed to disable the nVidia Desktop Manager. Perhaps I didn't really need to do that? (I can't remember now if I saw that in the Help file or on the site here somewhere).
If you say that they can play together OK, I'll reenable the Desktop Manager and try it.

There have been conflicts with some versions of the nView Desktop Manager, but the last issue I remember has been quite some time ago.
