Welcome rjurasinb1 to the windows 7 forum.
What might be happening is that the window is opening in the minimum screen.

check the properties to see if it is set to open minimize.

When you say it dissapears. Does it show the icon in the task bar at the bottom of the screen?.

Of does it close completely.
