How to fix screen resolution... make me mad like bull!

Resolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

 

Keywords "not connected to network and home PC." Here we go; click start, control panel, user accounts, change the way users log on or off. Uncheck the box that says Fast User Switching.

 

I hope you havent given up yet buddy, or done anything crazy like reload your OS or buy a new video card. Aye yieyie. Thank you people. I'll be here all week.

Resolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

 

Mine does, I hav a 82810E, or similar to that and mine does this. My other computer had the same, and it didnt do this, maybe cuz I had another graphics card for multi monitor setup.

same problem here

Resolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

 

Having the same problem here, I think, on a new Vista Lenobo laptop with nVidia, in dual screen mode - it forgets the resolution of the external screen, both every reboot and occasionally during UAC and such. Seems like there are a few people out there with the problem, but no fixes

Seems to be a scheduled task

Resolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

 

Disabling the scheduled "multimonitor" service fixed it for me on Vista, and my multiple monitors are now working fine (what is this scheduled service for? Why does it break things so badly?):

Control panel ->

Task scheduler library ->

Microsoft ->

Windows ->

Mobilepc ->

TMM ->

Disable

Solution: Resolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After RestartResolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

 Its very simple and easy to correct this error.. It just matters in editing the registry... I had the problem previously and rectified myself by following this procedure.. I request you to take a backup of your registry before doing this...

1) Go to Start --> Run  -->  regedit   and press enter

2) Click 'Edit' and click 'Find' in the Edit menu

3) Type ' DefaultSettings.XResolution ' (without quotes) and click 'Find' 

4) Now double click it and change the hexadecimal value to 400 which corresponds to 1024 

5) Click 'Find Next' and repeat Step 4)

6) Now do the same for ' DefaultSettings.YResolution ' (without quotes) and change the hexadecimal value to 300 which corresponds to 768 and restart.

If this worked for you just reply so that others can make use of your comments..

resolution changes automatically restartResolution Keeps Changing To 800x600 After Restart

For those that are having problem with XP reverting it's resolution to lower resolutions on restarts... My husband had a similar issue and realised that if he upgraded his direct X to the newest one it fixed the problem... Might be an answer for some of you out there. It fixed his issues on a completely new installation that was doing it.

I have the same problem except I change it to lower resolution and 16 instead of 32 because I can't see the little letters and it hurts my eyes.  I don't do anything but log off user and it power down to rest only, not off, and when I open the top it comes out of rest and automatically it changes back to highest resolution available... I can't see it... And have to go back into the control panel to change it.  It's a bother
