Re: Multi-Monitor Questions

["Mark Allen" <scprideandms@xxxxxxxxx>]

Vista crashes me and requires a reboot about 10% of what XP used to (and I
install/uninstall lots of stuff on it).

My major beef is after every "patch" the following happens EVERY time:

1.  User Account Control gets re-enabled
2.  All the icons from my right (secondary) monitor move to the left
(primary) monitor.
3.  Related to 2 above if the right monitor icon getting moved AND it's in
the same place relatively to the top/left of an icon already on the left
monitor, then it seems to get placed at semi-random places.
4.  ANY non-MS IE browser shortcut on my desktip gets DELETED.
