Yes, you read that correctly, I did unplugged it from the computer and it STILL continued. It's obviously something in the monitor settings but I'm not sure what it is. It's really more annoying rather than a problem. As far as Nvidia, I've read some crazy things about their cards and Vista not playing nice together. Both companies are blaming each other for not working properly. Time will tell whether or not they find the "RIGHT" fix.
