Windowed Mode Repositioning

So, I've played Fallout 3 in windowed with the second highest resolution available (1280x960) to me and it worked quite well. Now that I have New Vegas I'd like to do the same, as the all the full screen resolutions feel a tad cramped, horizontally scrunched, and/or blurry. Not only that, but the game seems much more stable and easier to, shall we say, escape whenever it freezes. For instance, sometimes it likes to linger on a loading screen until eternity or I do a hard restart because I can't minimize the program or see anything behind it. The only problem I'm having is that when I play in windowed mode, I can't adjust the window's position like I could with FO3. The way I repositioned FO3 was by pressing the Home key to bring up a Games for Windows Live menu, then click the top of the window panel and drag it where I like. I can't seem to do the same with NV though, nor can I simply click and drag with the window active or inactive. Any suggestions how to do it?

It's possible to get your mouse onto the title bar to move the window. One way to do it is to alt+tab to another window. The game won't release the mouse, but you can make a guess at how far you'll need to move the mouse to position it over the title bar to move the window. I am able to do this using Update 7, currently.
