Hi, I have a couple of games that use the memory on the video card, they
kind of take it over I guess. Whenever I exit the game, my icons are all
lined up on the left side of the desktop, like I had Auto Arranged them or
something. Does anyone know how I can get the stupid things to stay in
place? Thanks for any help.
 
Try right clicking on blank area of desktop, select arrange icons and check
"Lock web items" this might work.

Didn't work. Thanks anyway. I think that is for displaying web pages and
pictures as part of your desktop.
