Msn today box opening in Windows 7 64

When I first boot Windows 7 I have it set to excite Windows Live
Messenger(latest version)
Messenger opens Fine, the "today" box opens almost entirely off-screen, just
a little bit is showing at the very top of my screen. (22 inch screen) I
have to go to task manager & close the today box that way. I then open it &
it opens correctly.
Using latest Nvidia drivers. Screen resolution 1280x800.(tired old eyes)

As far as I know this just started occurring recently.

All updates applied in Windows 7 (including the latest Microsoft keyboard &
mouse drivers).



Anyone experiencing same in Windows 7 64

Hugh,
Not quite related to your post but 22 inches screens call for a "natural"
resolution of 1680 x 1050.
After setting that resolution, characters will be small so you will surely
like to resize them to 125%.
At least, that's my setup and works for my tired old eyes.

This is likely a problem with the nvidia drivers. I'd suggest going as
Carlos suggests, and using native resolution, but larger characters.

Now my wife is telling me the same thing is happening on her HP laptop, she
has all the latest
updates applied & using Windows 7 64, Laptop has a 17 inch screen, she is
running at the native resolution
1400x900. Only thing different is she excites program after starting windows
7.
The "today" box works fine in Vista Ultimate 64 & Vista Home Premium 64 on
my desktop using same computer
& screen & same resolution.

Doesn't Nvidia have a control panel app that lets you "size" windows? I'd
try that. Honestly, it's the nvidia drivers and why should we be surprised?
The only good thing I can say about their drivers is that they make me glad
I'm running mostly ATI.
