    Hi,
    I wonder if it is possible to keep different settings for standalone notebook (VAIO C2Z/B) and notebook in docking station? I know about HW profiles but I want:

    - extended desktop with docking station (primary desktop monitor + secondary notebook lcd)
    - different desktop icons position for every setup
    - different applications position for every setup (run GIMP on the secondary monitor when the notebook is in the the docking station etc.)

    Do I need any software for that or it is possible within Windows 7?
    Thanks
    Peter
