Programs running, but invisible...

This happened once with AOL, and now it's my Sony/Ericsson phone suite.
I click on the icon to open the program and the program appears on my
taskbar, but I can't see it. If I right click on the taskbar and alternate
between minimize and maximize, it looks like the program is opening in a
window out of view at the bottom of my screen.
When this happened with AOL, someone suggested right clicking the taskbar
and changing the tiling of the windows. This worked fine, but when I try it
for my Sony program, tile vertically and horozontally are greyed out. I've
already tried changing my screen resolution and restarting the computer.
BTW-- if this helps, on both occasions my wife had been playing a lot of
online Java games when this happened.

Not really a question about Media Center, but..

Try right-clicking on the button and choosing "Move", then use the arrows
keys to move the window into view.

The reason the Tile may not be working is that you only have on application
open, therefore there is nothing to "tile"
