Vista - Monitor resolution sets back after reboot.

Good Morning All,

So far I am very happy with Vista 64, but I have one minor issue. I have done no tuning at this time for game optimization, so it is a stock install. OS drivers are up to date. I am using a 28" Hanspree LCD, which is recognized by name in device manager. I set the resolution to 1900x1200( might be 1920x1200), which is the native or recommended resolution for this monitor. Anyway it will stay on this resolution until I reboot, then it drops back to 1600x1200. Any ideas?

I am using a GTX 285 card. I was using the 182.08 drivers, and now using a beta driver 182.46, but same problem. I have searched and searched and have yet to find an answer. Hopefull someone will have an idea.

Corruption somewhere along the lines of video & monitor drivers is all I can think off since you say that the Hanspree LCD is recognized inside Device Manager/Monitors and not just a Generic PnP monitor.

I would try uninstalling the video & monitors drivers again, run the nvidia sweeper so you are sure to get rid of any instances on the registry and install a fresh copy of both again. Make sure that you "Run as Administrator".

Ok, I can try that. I did not see anyone else in this forum anyway that was having the same problem as I. Ok, thank you very much for your reply, I really appreciate the help on this.

Kind Regards

Please do not post the same question in various forums. Here's the one you posted under graphic cards - Monitor resolution sets back after reboot.

I apologize for that. I was viewing in the gaming forum and after I posted, I thought this was not the best place for the question, so I then posted in General.
