Let me preface this by saying I have anywhere between 40-60 icons on my desktop. (Haven't counted them..) At any rate, every so often I have something screw up my icon positions or 'reset' them. I was moving them back into place today, and finally was so fed up with the time involved to do this that I came here. This has been going on for months, and I have no idea when or why it started. As the title mentions, when I am moving an icon (or more then one even), the desktop will stop the currently moving/draggin icons. Seemingly 'freeze' them. I wait for roughly 15 seconds or so, and then it continues on it's way-(If I keep the mouse button held down during this interval). If I don't then when it starts 'moving' again, it just drops it off wherever the last place the mouse was. As I mentioned this is a on again off again thing. I move maybe 2 or 3, then on the next one it freezes again... uggg! I searched up and down on google and here and other forums and found nothing. Is this just my system? Do I have too many icons on the desktop? (Maybe it is trying to do a **** refresh -(Which is another annoyance I have-it refreshes way too much for apparently no reason.), while I am moving them. (This doesn't seem to be the case...)) Any input would be helpful! Thanks! EDIT: PS: For a fix (of sorts) does anyone know of a decent tool that records icons positions? I have an nVidia card, and I use to have an ATI. I know ATItool use to do this albeit inaccurately.
