Just to let everyone know: I managed to solve all my problems. The simple
solution comes from another answer in this newsgroup: Disable the
NVIDIA Display Driver Service. I did not want to believe this, so i tried it
out. Disabled the service, restarted the computers and everything was fine.
After reboot, the profiles were updated after each log off.
BTW: I do not know what this service does. The video cards still just work
fine. So it is not necessary to have this service enabled to use windows.
Thanx everyone. =)
