Mmm. So you mean that the top-left corner of the top-left monitor should be (0,0)? I'll give this a try. Alternatively, those checks in gui.c that the position of the screen are sensible after resizing the window are redundant on Windows, because the code that resizes the screen also precisely positions it itself. Another possible solution could be to wrap that in an #ifndef WIN32 to disable it on windows systems. -James
