I think it is because you are trying to lay out a form that is similar in size to the size of your screen and so the designer window needs to be larger than the screen and is being truncated because it is a fixed size window. I get the same effect as you on my XP laptop and netbook with a form close to the size of the screen. However they both have an Intel display driver that supports virtual screens larger that the native screen size. If I increase the virtual screen size the problem goes away unless I again try to use a form nearly the size of the virtual screen.

I have not understand where you change the virtual size of the screen
