Dave,

Try resetting the WMP windows placement in the registry.

Type REGEDIT in Start/Run

Navigate to: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences

In the right-pane:
Double-click "X" and set it to 0
Double-click "Y" and set it to 0
Double-click "Maximized" and set it to 1

Close and re-open WMP.

Right-click the shortcut icon, properties, in the run, expand to maximize

That works, Mary, but if you 'restore' the window it disappears out of sight
again.
