I'm running Vista 64-bit.

For some reason, whenever I try to open up a fucking notepad document (I use them for lists and to keep track of memos and whatnot), it loads up OFF of my screen. Right clicking on it in my taskbar and hitting move or size doesn't do anything...just relocates my cursor to the top left of my screen (which is I guess the general direction the documents are off-screen).

Does anyone know how to fix this? Like perhaps some kind of command to force them to the center of the screen or something?

EDIT
Just to add, if I try to open a new notepad document, the same thing happens. I can maximize and still access them, but this is annoying.

Try maxing out your resolution to see if you can see it/move it.

If it is already maxed out or that doesn't work.. try lowering it with the program running, often program windows will be moved when you change resolution to avoid...

the problem you're having.


Ok I googled a better answer for you

"
If you use "Move" then tap an arrow key, the mouse will attach itself to the titlebar of the window. You should then be able to move the window to where you want it to be.

Then close Notepad and it should reopen in the same place it was when you closed it.

The key word in all of that is "should."

I dunno if I can boost it anymore...my monitor's native resolution is 1680x1050 (22" widescreen).

I have no programs other than AIM, Firefox and a couple notepads running. Games are the only programs I use that would change the displayed resolution, and even then, it's mostly SC. I've never had this problem before...so it's freaking weird.

Thanks, though.

lol...

poor PH... I know I'd have spent hours searching google for an answer and to have the search words be something as simple as that...

augh I'd feel stupid. hahaha. Thanks though, Inreach, I didn't know that worked like that either.
SirJolt: Well maybe if you weren't so big and stupid, it wouldn't have hit you.
