I have a hdmi switcher from monoprice that I use to switch input between my pc and my ps3.

I just recently upgraded to win 7 from vista, but I noticed something. when I switch to ps3 and back to pc via the switcher, my program windows get re-sized, as if the resolution changed and changed back.

For example, firefox and my AIM buddy list would shift to the left and get re-sized.

This didn't happen in vista, all my programs stayed in place.

Anyone know how to fix this?
 
From what I was reading about this problem (it's affecting many people, especially those with KVM switches), there is no fix. It's a new "feature" of 7 and currently there is no way to turn it off.

Someone did say however, that he was told by some Microsoft techs, that a patch was in the works and close to completion.
