Problem with resizing and exiting with X

Hello,

Ever since I got my computer a few days ago, Vista Ultimate has been
rendering resizing with the mouse oddly. If I go over the edge of a
non-maximized window, the mouse won't turn into the resizing icon at the
place I expect it to. Instead, I have to move the mouse 10 or so pixels to
the left or right for the OS to finally realize that I'm trying to resize.
Also, in some applications, when I try to use the top right X to exit the
program, the mouse has trouble recognizing that I'm over the X and switches
between "scale window up" and "scale window right" icons. This happens a lot
with AIM (newest version) and that little X they give you.

Any ideas?

TIA,
Matt
