Re: Vista keeps losing my dual monitor settings

My problem is, each time Vista goes to sleep, or hibernates, and even on some restarts it reverts back to clone mode.
Scott144; I temporarily solved this problem for the past year by installing an old X1300 ATI card for my second monitor in addition to the 4850 on a Gateway CPU. Since ATI's Version 9.4 and higher no longer support this old card, I had to remove it in order to install Ver. 9.5. And Yeap; the problem we both experience is back.

By the way; do you have both monitors set for the same resolution? Someone told me that having the monitors set at different resolutions could cause this problem.

Just for what it's worth; while I had both cards installed, never had a single video setting problem. (Each monitor at a different resolution).

I am considering another 4850 and Crossfire them but will go off the roof if the problem persists.

I wonder if other users out there, using two 4850 Crossfired cards have this problem also.
