After reboot my user screen resolution is set back to 640x480.
While booting i see a normal resolution but as soon as the welcomescreen appears the resolution is set back to 640,480.
I can set it back to my default 1920x1200. But next time i boot it will be 640x480 again.
When i switch user, i have to set it to 1920x1200 too..
(I expect to have the sam resolution for all users.. )
Graphics-card is ATI Radeon HD 4350
Windows 7 64 Bit

Anyone?????

I know that in XP you could go into msconfig and under startup items turn setrefresh.exe off. See if that is available under W7. I can't verify myself yet due to my work pc being XP. I also found this to try:

To enter clean boot mode on a computer, follow these steps.
1. Click Start, type msconfig in the Start Search box, and then press ENTER.

If you are prompted for an administrator password or for a confirmation, type the password, or click Continue.

2. On the General tab, click Selective Startup.
3. Under Selective Startup, click to clear the Load Startup Items check box.
4. Click the Services tab, click to select the Hide All Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable All.
5. Click OK.
6. When you are prompted, click Restart.
7. After the computer starts, check whether the problem is resolved.

You'll need to return to normal boot once done and find the item that is causing the problem. Could take a bit so be patient.

edit: But i found a checkbox "Standaardvideo" that was checked... After un-checking this checkbox it was solved!
Thanks for sending me in that direction, it solved some other problems too!
