X6 trace dialog box opens...but where

I am having this weird problem; when I want to use powertrace, the only option I can use is quick trace. If I choose outline trace, the dialog box apparently opens, I just don't know where to. But obviously it it open because I can't use mouse or keys, the only key that responds is Esc. And no trace is being done... I have tried every trick I can think of, but I have ran out of ideas. Anyone?
