Desktop Icons

Hi,

Just wondering if there was a trick to keep the desktop icons in their position after changing orientation. I have an Acer TravelMate C300 and it is driving me crazy. I have seen this same thing happen on a couple other TPCs and hoping that there was a solution to keep them fixed.

Thanks

Scott

RE: Desktop Icons

You should try the freeware DIManager: http://www.sedoge.com/files/programms/DIManager.exe
It can Backup/store and arrange your icon positions.

Please let me know if it was helpfull for you.

Keep your icons within the top left 768 x 768 region of your desktop so that
they are not affected by orientation changes. It should actually be
768-height of your taskbar.
