EDIT: figured it out, mods can close this! sorry bout that

Hey TL, i've been tinkering with this for a while and it's starting to frustrate me.

Ive been playing a game (HoN) on full screen for a while on my widescreen laptop and i've decided to switch it to window screen. The catch is, my HoN window seems to automatically snap so that the very top of the windows is touching the top of my screen, when I would rather have it so my actual game window is in the direct middle of the screen.

I'll show you what I mean with a screen shot:

[image loading]

The reason is, I use the mouse to scroll around the map by dragging it to the edge of my game-window. But with this stupid windows7 preset, my game-window (Hon-window) automatically seems to snap to the top of my screen. And so the very bottom edge of my game-window is hidden under my laptop screen and I can't scroll downwards in my game.

So my question is, do you guys know how to change settings around so I can move my game window around and have it stay EXACTLY where I placed it? (without the stupid OS presuming and moving my window to fit the screen?)

edit: oh, and when i was using the previous OS (vista), i didnt have any problems with this. If i moved my game-window up, it would stay there like that -____- thats what i want

Just a protip for next time. Posts like this can be posted in the Tech Support forum under the General Forum. It would get a lot more responses and it's where questions like these are suited.
