Window won't maximize

I have Virtual PC Console open. It's icon is in the taskbar.
However, the console window will not appear. When I click the taskbar
icon, it disappears and I only have the icon near the clock. When I
right click the taskbar icon, I have options to Move, Size, and
Minimize. Maximize is grayed out.

I've tried cascading all open windows but VPC still doesn't appear.
Any one know how to get around this?

Hi Brett

It sounds like you have a window that is offscreen. Use this solutio
to get it back on the screen. You should then be able to maximize i
the usual way
