Mandrake Display is Shifted/Off Center when KDE starts

I have installed Mandrake 10.1 Official. There is a problem with the display. I own a MAG Innovation LT-456s, and NVidia MX400 Card, as soon as KDE starts booting, the display image shifts to the right about 3/8" making it very annoying at best. I have some screenshots and more information on this webpage: http://www.microsvc.com/lboot

Note: The refresh rate setting has two options, 60Hz and 70Hz - both give the same result.

This problem also exists on Fedora3 that I have installed on the same hardware, but Suse is fine.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated

This happens to me every so often, usually when switching from the official "nvidia" driver to "vesa" or vice-versa. Usually a quick press of my monitor's "Auto-Adjust" button fixes it right up.
