Whenever I lock my computer, My background, which is a single, streched image, switches its positions on the left and right screen. It goes back to normal when I unlock it, but when its locked, its like my left screen (secondary) is on the right, and vise versa. I can fix this by changing the primary monitor, but I need to have my primary monitor on the right. How can I fix this problem?

This could happen if the Active Desktop is enabled.
For example if you're using Windows 2000, right-click the desktop then select Active Desktop from the menu and check if Show Web Content is checked.
If the option is checked, the Active Desktop is enabled.
There is no fix for this, you would need to disable the Active Desktop.

On XP, go to Display Properties > Desktop > Customize desktop > Web and make sure no items are enabled.
Also right-click the desktop and make sure Show Desktop Icons is checked, unchecking this option enables the Active Desktop.
Another reason this could happen is if you're using IconX from Stardock.
