lose custom resolution on reboot.

[Kreeeee]

When I try to set my second monitor to its native resolution (1360*768) this happens:

I can select the resolution when the monitor is disabled but when I enable it that specific option disappears.

The card is an Nvidia 8600 GT

Also I don't get this problem if the second monitor is the only monitor being used.

I can create a custom resolution and select 1360*768 but this simply resets itself after a reboot so I can no longer select it until I delete and the re-add the custom resolution.

Do you have local admin rights ?

Seems to be a common theme among Windows XP users - though often it's as much down to the drivers as it is Windows itself.

For example, my laptop likes to downsize to 800x600 whenever I switch monitors. I'll think I've solved it and then a few reboots later it's back again. Most annoying.

Sorry I can't offer a solution, only consolation that you're not alone.

But it was working the other week and I have no idea what has changed bar windows updates. I've tried a multitude of drivers to no avail.
