I wonder if those coordinates might be off-screen in your case: You said “upper” monitor, suggesting that your secondary is positioned on top of your primary in Display Settings>Layout (from memory, I’m on my MBA right now). Perhaps your secondary is wider than your primary so the upper left corner of the primary isn’t 0,0. If that sounds plausible to you, try changing the monitor layout so that they’re side-by-side and see if that makes the dialog box visible without repositioning it.

My external monitor is above my builtin, and slightly to the right, probably making 0,0 to the left of the external monitor.  This shows the arrangement setting:

With this setup, my mouse runs continuously from my internal display to the external display, just because of the physical orientation.

And yes, it is the staring parameters window associated with the reconcile action.
