Mulitiple Monitors + Notebooks = Hidden Windows

On my main machine, a T60 Thinkpad, I’m still using XP. Next month, I’ll be getting a new Thinkpad which I’ll install Vista 64 until then I’m still dealing with a small problem. When I’m at work with the dual monitors every thing runs just fine but when I get home and restart some apps they are stuck on the non-existent second monitor. Sometimes, I’m able to get into the registry and change the X, Y window coordinates but most time I’m stuck. Until now. To get the window back right click on the application in the task bar and select Move. From there, use the arrow keys to move the window to the current monitor. You can also press an arrow key then use the mouse to move the window. If you only use the mouse it won’t work. Via http://edwardkim.net
