trapeze

I set 5 minutes to go into screensave mode, and whenever i get back, all
my xpsp2 windows that have been originally opened are all aligned to the
upper left corner of my screen

i prefer opening windows and using them not in full screen mode,
therefore i have to drag them back to the place i like again and again
whenever i get back to desktop after my sp2 goes into screensave
mode...

is there anything i can do about it ? thinks a million.
 
The reason is probably a difference in your usual screen resolution,
and the resolution used by your screensaver. If you run your screen
at, let's say 1200*800, and the screensaver defaults to 640*480, your
windows will be too large for the screen in saver mode, and therefore
will be moved to the upper left corner.
The same thing will happen to your desktop icons.
Solution: Set your saver (if possible) to your selected resolution, or
select another saver.
