Display probelms in Vista

When I open a window that's not maximised, or open a dialogue box, or indeed
anything that's not full size, when I move the cursor outside of the
displayed area, the window disappears and the display reverts to the recent
most full size window. The application or dialogue box or prompt stays open
but I have to select it from the task bar and then ensure that the cursor is
kept inside the displayed area to prevent the same thing happening. Is there
anything within Vista that I can change to stop this?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

Re: Display probelms in Vista

I'm not sure my fix will work for you, but when I saw that after a recent
update, I turned off the Aero theme, restarted windows, and turned it back
on, then restarted again.
