changes to resolution and taskbar placement on reboot

Our office got Windows XP several months ago. Everything
was fine for several weeks. One night when I restarted,
the Start toolbar was on my second monitor, and the first
monitor's resolution had changed to 600x800--which is not
what I had it set to. I have to move it all back everyday
after I restart. At the same time, it always started with
the NUMLOCK off. I went into setup (F2) and it said to
start with NUMLOCK on. I changed nothing but it now does
boot with the numlock on--so that fixed itself.

I have locked the toolbar and have tried everything I can
think of to make it stay the way I want it but no luck.

Suggestions?
