Matt,

After trying for some time, I could not get the Webstart version of the IDV for 
Windows Java 7 working. (I too could load data, but the display never worked 
and the splash screen never disappeared. This issue is very likely related to 
Java 3D problems which are scheduled to be fixed by Oracle later this summer). 
At any rate, please revert back to Java 6. Use C:\Program 
Files\Java\jre6\bin\javaws.exe


There may be additional problems, but let's first solve this one. Again, please 
keep us up-to-date on your progress.

Best,

Unidata IDV Support
