Looking for window manager software

Hi,

I'm looking for window manager program for Windows XP. The one that can set size and position of the program's window when it start. So far, I found only one program, Actual Window Manager, which doesn't work with The GIMP. If you know any, please tell me.

Thanks in advance.

If you have a GFX-card with nVidia chip, their drivers seem to have such a feature built-in (Applications tab), for example I see there a "Globally disable all individual settings and window memory" option - I have that option ticked so I'm not using that feature, but it sounds like what you're looking for.

Unfortunately, I use a laptop with GeForce Go 6200, and GeForce driver was preinstalled. It seem this driver doesn't have desktop management feature. Also, NVIDIA doesn't provide any driver update for GeForce Go cards (except GeForce Go 7800 GTX).

EDIT: Typo

I'ma very big fan of Sizer.  I can't speak to The Gimp, because I don't use it, but I know it can resize/position weird apps like WinAmp.
