 Warp 4 Error

Howdy ..

I have a major OS/2 Mp4 'normal' complex system which suddenly is refusing to
open each now non-regular desktop object in the 'normal' standard position
that is in a 'standard' position on the desktop. The normal standard size
window for multiple programs one may open. Now, yes, if you right click the
top left hand spot on the blue bar there is a 'scroll' option which I have
never used.  However is this crazy error, each object you open even such as a
blank DOS or OS/2 window desired, flips down and to the right in the sort of
scroll format instead of over-laying over the 'top' item at the same point on
the desktop total screen!  Something went nuts on this system that started
this error.  From decades ago I sort of recall seeing a discussion of this
issue but now at my current intense mind fill for a lot of other things
besides OS/2, I can't recall how to trace and fix this!  This issue popped up
when the box strangely locked up and I was wondering if I was going to have to
force re-boot it.  There were multiple objects on top of each other as
normal.  But the keyboared wouldn't respond and the clock top activity was
jammed as well too.  I moved the mouse up to see if the mouse worked.  It was
as normal at that time actually touching inside the 'top' window and then when
I touched the left key on the mouse the whole system suddenly was working
again!  But this time with the strange auto scroll effect for opening multiple
windows size objects in the little top left down and to the right for each new
opject selected.  In this case also the entire desktop is normal for each
formal desktop item selected and where it has been originally set to be when I
click on it.

Thoughts?
