since installing SP3 my photoshop is not able to properly refresh when using
dual monitors. I have a Dell m90, laptop with a nvidia quadro 2500m video
card. I have a 23 inch Cinema Display attached to the DVI port. 3gigs RAM. I
have updated my nVidia drivers hoping it would help, but no good.

In photoshop if I activate a layer to be transformed the edit bounding box
does not display. If I move the document window the bounding box appears.
This type of behavior is happening with many tools, it seems to be a realtime
refresh problem. If I move a document window to the second monitor it
displays only the window frame and no contents ( the main reason for having
dual monitors).
I tried to change the refresh rate on the monitors but no good.

If I remove the second monitor and just use the laptop display I have no
problems.

Any help is appreciated

Several applications are still not SP3 aware. You can / should try
updating video card drives and check for Photoshop updates / tweaks.
