    I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this in here, but recently my np5790 has been changing resolutions on sleep or cold boot. I use 1920x1200, but lately it's been switching to 1920x1080, a resolution I've never used and to be honest I'm not sure why it is doing it.

    I'm currently using 177.79 drivers from lv2g but this was doing it on other versions as well (.70, .66, etc). Yes, I do a driversweep/driverclean between each installation. It could be something with the whole 177.x line, but I know it wasn't doing it with 177.41, so I'm not sure if it's the latter drivers, or if something else has changed, or what. It's not a huge deal, but it gets annoying having to manually change it on every bootup.

    Oh, and yes, I'm using Vista, so it's my fault, etc etc :p

    Any ideas?
