This should only happen if the game resolution is set to higher than your desktop resolution. At 1920x1200 resolution for both game (windowed mode) and windows, ffxiv launches with just a small border on the left. Just have to grab the window with the mouse and move it to the left a few pixels and it takes up the whole screen, even covering the windows task bar (sometimes have to move it around a bit before taskbar is moved to background [windows bug i think, taskbar is supposed to be always on top].)
