Summary	08019: All: -Nomaximize starts the MAME window in upper left instead of centered.
Description	Actual: Playing w/ the new scale options going into tip of tree and noticed this behaviour; if you specify -nomaximize you don't get a centered window. It starts in the upper left of your monitor offset by a hundred pixels or so left and top. I haven't used -nomaximize for a very long time so not sure how far back the behaviour goes, but I do remember it being centered at one time. Expected: Would expect a center window like you get w/ -nomaximize off.
Steps To Reproduce	mame dkong -norc -window -nomaximize mame dkong -norc -window mame pacman -norc -window -nomaximize -ka -uesy -sx 4 -video d3d -nofilter
Additional Information	Happens in .233 official from mamedev.org and tip of trunk from today: 0.233 (mame0233-55-g5c21151190a)
