    I have a dell xps1530 with 1440x900 ress. For some reason, after i play certain games, i get an icon on my system tray saying that it is not of native ress (thus meaning its not at 1440x900) although it really is.
    Furthermore, when I play these games and the ress supposily changes, my rainmeter configs get moved to the upper left corner even though i locked them.
    For example im using HUD.Vision's clock and i have it placed at the bottom right corner of my monitor. After playing certain games, it gets moved to like the middle of my screen.
    Anyone know how to make it so it doesn't move? or have nvidia automatically go back to 1440x900 after playing games that needs to change that?

    I had this problem too and made a thread on it too. No solutions. Only thing to do is exit rainmeter before you play the game, and then open it back up when you are done. That's what I do.
