Monitor settings for multiple users?

I am having trouble figuring out how to adjust the monitor settings for more
than one user. My partner is partially blind and I am not. I want to set it
to be as fine as possible, but my partner needs it to be considerably larger.
Vista does not seem able to accomodate our individual needs for screen
resolution and forces us to use a setting that falls in the middle. This
isn't what I would call accomodation - or intuitive design. Is there a way
to accomodate the two of us? I have an Nvidia graphics card and their
software doesn't seem any more accomodating than Vista is.

Re: Monitor settings for multiple users?

There is nothing you can do for individual profiles in that regard, as far as I know anyway, but this might be of some help to you.

Quickly Change Your Resolution & Color Depth - FastRes

This way, you can change the resolution much more quickly, in two or three clicks.

ps I don't know if this program works in Vista, I've never used it. If not, I'm sure something similar does.
