| | RE: large icons won't stay put in vista I have the same problem with Vista Enterprise. HP gave me this link: http://www.bestvistadownloads.com/rd...Fdesksaver.zip .. It's not a complete fix but it helped some. What it does is lets you save your desktop so you can in essence restore it. But it doesn't prevent your icons from getting moved, which means you have to use the Keeper to restore your icons to their locations everytime it gets moved. Another problem with this is that it saves the documents as is, so the changes you've made to the documents won't be there since it puts back the last copy you saved to the Keeper. What I do is keep my documents on my memory card and only have programs on my desktop. It's a real pain..I hope Microsoft fixes this real soon and sends us free updates!
