extend desktop to TV messes up desktop icons
When I plug in the laptop RGB connection to my 42" plasma, sometimes (maybe 50% of the time) the icons on my desktop get pushed all the way over to the right hand side, which are then covered by whatever desktop gadgets I have. Annoying. When I disconnect the TV, icons return to their proper placements on the left hand side.
The Fn function key + F5 switches between the dispaly modes: 'Duplicate desktop', 'Extend', 'Projector only', Disconnect projector'. There doesn't seem to be any pattern, it's random in its manifestation. I always extend not duplicate, so I can watch media on the TV and still have computer stuff on the PC. I haven't updated any drivers lately, it's just been occuring more and more frequently. There shouldn't be any reason why this happens. How can I cure this please?
