Had this issue myself and figure there's got to be a few others with the same problem.

When running multiple monitors nVidia drivers switch the Manage 3D Setting "Multi-display/mixed-GPU acceration" setting to multiple montiors, it needs to be switched to single. Note this is only the newer drivers where they moved everything to a control panel inside explorer. For older drivers, I have no clue :P

It was impossible to navigate menu's with it like this, but this sorted. I believe this is also the same for Q4 / D3.

i had the same problem and i was frustrated (high-end pc). i tried to disable the usual suspects without success before i figured the dual screen problem, duh. problem does not occur @nvidia 162.22 (VISTA 32/64) though.

hi, i got also problems with mine Demo, i set it to Single, and done that 'extension' thing to off, but stil if i double klick on the .exe, it's starting, black screen and then etqw.exe error message what you will get when something grind to a hold.

i got all the latest drivers, i got a AMD X2 4600+, 8800gts 640mb 2gig memory

I've had this problem with QuakeWars and also Quake 4 Multiplayer. I have to use older drivers. It would probable be better for nVidia to fix the driver.
