Does your computer have a dual output video card and is a second display
showing in the display options (whether you have a 2nd monitor connected or
not)? Sometimes desktop items can get moved to the second display, though
usually the taskbar goes with them. Could be a quirk of your display drivers
or indicate a faulty driver installation.
