There are 4 people, and 4 seperate user profiles on this computer. I like my
resolution at 1024x768, and someone else likes it at 800x600. When I set
mine, and switch users, it keeps it for all the other users, and visa-versa.
Is there a way that we can all have our own screen resolutions?

How about if you have a Windows 2000 computer? This utility is for XP.

Thanks.

Don't know, Sam. Have never used Win2000. Doug has another other tool that
works in Win2000 but does not save settings on a per user basis. It works
more like the old Power Toys QuickRes:
