Why do my gadgets reorder sometimes?

Why the heck does my gadgets reorder sometimes? Shouldn't the order of the
gadgets always be lockdown from top to bottom in the same order, everytime
you reboot? It doesn't happen every day, seems to be kind of random after
reboot, still haven't determined what causes it.

I don't know if it is caused by running Vista on different sized screen
resolutions, default laptop screen, external LCD at home, external LCD at
work, all 3 screens are different resolution; still a person wouldn't think
that I would want my gadgets reorded because I changed screen resolutions,
would I????

Same thing here. Haven't been able to figure it out. No big deal, though.

Enlightenment???
Why don't you ask an intelligent question so that folks here can help you
out and possible solve the problem.
An enlightened person would probe for a resolution, and when that person
found that it wasn't solvable, then post a suggestion for the developers.

Re: Why do my gadgets reorder sometimes?

"W" shove your punk-ass response! When I entered my message, it was the 1st
time that I've ever visited this site, and now have learned that I picked
"Suggestion" instead of "Question" by accident. You could have been polite,
but heck no, you proved to everyone that you are just an a-hole instead!

Another person understood my message, and had this same problem before you
even wrote a comment, so it doesn't appear to be just me. Thanks Rock for
the comment!

Re: Why do my gadgets reorder sometimes?

have seen it occur but only after changing screen resolution as you suspect.
unfortunately there does not appear to be a LOCK for it as there is for task bar.
