Windows 7 windows gadget

[mistycom]

I am having problems with the placement of the windows gadgets. They move away from the positions which i have initially placed them in every time i restart my laptop. I know this is a problem carried from windows vista so such threads might have existed in this forum(If so, link me to it). Is this caused by a bug? What could possibly be the cause of such a basic problem? If the icons can behave in a manner where they are not being moved away, why not the gadgets? How can i fix this? I appreciate your insights and your time.
