    I have an odd issue on my P-172X FX, the resolution is changing automatically by itself when I bring the notebook out of "sleep".

    It started doing this after upgrading to Ultimate x64, It will change to 1024x768 from 1920x1200 and sometimes will correct itself and go back. But it only does it about 75% of the time. I will have to manually change it back to 1920x1200 in nTune.

    I have tried changing video drivers and reinstalling nTune but it still does it, has anyone had this issue or have any ideas? Thanks.

    Do you have any programs running when you bring it out of sleep? Sometimes when I have a game that plays in 1024x768 up when I put the computer to sleep, it comes back in resolution.

    Nope I do not have any thing running and I only have 2 games installed, Call of Duty 4 and Gears of War and I have both of them running in 1920x1200 so that's not it.
