For those of you who do not know, the NXT launcher is incredibly buggy. If you only have 1 monitor, you may not have experienced this incredibly annoying error. For anyone using 2 monitors (1 that is using an HDMI cord) Almost every time the launcher is opened, it will get stuck on "Loading Application Resources"

The only fix for this is closing the launcher, unplugging the HDMI cord to your second monitor, reopening the launcher, then plugging your monitor back in. I am so sick of having to unplug my monitor anytime I want to log in or open a second client for my alt. This has been an error for so long and it's not being fixed only because it doesn't effect 100% of the players, only those using multiple monitors. Please for the love of god fix this error.

This issue is caused by using two separate GPUs with one monitor plugged into each, not just two monitors. I would suggest avoiding this if at all possible, as performance will be impacted in pretty much everything, especially at higher resolutions

When I last investigated it appeared to be a driver issue with no clear fix

That's strange I've not seen it happen on single GPU systems

May be a stupid question but are your monitors definitely plugged into the Nvidia card and not to any motherboard video ports?

for the first time

That must be a different issue with the same symptoms - the issue I'm referring to happens with a >90% repro rate - it's difficult to get RS to start at all
