When I drag a file to the right side of the screen it will go as far as the mouse pointer goes, but as soon as I let go of the mouse button it snaps back so that the whole file is shown on the right side of desktop.Tis is with the 64-Bit version
Just tried connecting using a vga cable instead if the HDMI and it works fine. DVI/HDMI issue then i suppose.
Also if i use the vga cable i get the correct screen resolution instead of the oversize screen which i have to adjust, so defiantly a DVI/HDMI problem.
I can make the window snap by first stretching it to the full size of my screen then dragging it to the right, not ideal but it works

Must be a DVI/HDMI problem, I disconnected the DVI cable going to our HDTV and now the right side works as it should.. Another problem I would think that needs to be addressed by Windows 7 creators along with the networking problems I'm battling with Windows 7.Just tried connecting using a vga cable instead if the HDMI and it works fine.

As an update this problem seems to have gone now.
I dont know if it was the plugging in of the vga then plugging back in of the HDMI, or the fact, that i found a realy simple cure for an oversize screen on a HD tv, (change widescreen to Dot to Dot from full), Whatever it was it now works

I think garysgold is on the right track. Have you tried to right-click the desktop & select Screen Resolution, from here you can see if you have your desktop extended (under Multiple displays). If so, just select 'Show display on 1' from the dropdown. This will restore everything that may be on the extended desktop back to the main desktop.
Hope this helps :)

If it's the Nvidia update your talking about I already had that installed, as for the "vga" connection you mentioned I don't have one on my GeForce 7800(only two DVI) both my Computer monitor and HDTV connect via these DVI connections, no vga connections are used or even available on my graphics card. I thought of maybe installing the latest Vista Nvidia drivers for my card and see if that works, as of now I've kept my HDTV not plugged into my graphics card and the computer screen works as it should.As an update this problem seems to have gone now.

On your HDTV there should be an option to change the widescreen settings. It needs to be DOT to DOT not FULL, that should confine the screen to the actual size of the visible area and not make it over size, which hopefully would mean that the right side is not extended so far.
Hope it helps, it cured my problem.
