Resolution Change after Locking
Whenever I lock my computer, the resolution changes to something very high like 1024/768. Anyone else has that issue?

Hi kingamoon..... welcome to the se7en forums.

are you trying to run 800x600 on that monitor..?? if so why..??
your card is pretty poor for a screen capable of such a high res....

Yah. It's time for me to get a more powerful video card
I'm not trying to run 800x600. When I click on CTRL+ALT+DEL to lock my PC, the resolution changes from 1920x1200 to 800x600. I don't know why that happens.
THanks in advance

I am having the same issue
did you ever get a resolution to this problem.
Every time I lock my screen with CTRL-ALT-DEL the screen resolution on my 2nd screen changes back to 800x600.
thanks
