    Monitor resolution change during sleep


    Hi,

    I just added a 2nd monitor to my setup but whenever the desktop goes into sleep mode the 2nd monitor becomes the primary monitor, changes resolution and forgets the 1st monitor. Every time I have to go into Screen Resolution and detect the other monitor (primary) which then adjusts the resolution back to it's standard size and monitor priority.

    Monitor 1: DVI
    Monitor 2 : VGA
    Graphics card: ATI Radeon HD 4200

    It's a long shot but, go to your Power Settings, Change Plan Settings in the Control Panel and set it to never turn off the display.

    Also, are you using the driver from here-

I'm pretty sure the reason I can't change the resolution on my monitor is because it is listed as Generic PnP in Device Manager. Although in Control Panel-->Display the model number is listed. It's a seven year old monitor. Model Sony SDM-HS73. Should I attempt to install a driver? Will that...
