    Its not really a problem with the laptop......the laptop changes resolution when it goes into sleep mode, and windows automatically moves the icons around.

    My friend has an IBM Thinkpad X60 and he has the same problem. The solution is to stop the laptop from changing resolution, but I dont know if that is feasible.

    well of course the problem is solved by not having the res change automatically, and it is not normal behavior. Ive used hibernate for many years on many laptops and never seen this issue before.
