    I spent about 3 hours the other day in ATi Catalyst control center, adjusting my color levels and everything else, but everytime I restart my laptop, the settings aren't saved. If I open Catalyst, my settings are then applied, but not when I first turn the machine on. I clicked "apply" and "ok" when I got everything set, but it doesn't put them into effect until I run the program. Can someone tell me how to make Windows save my display settings?

    download atitray, and set ur ati display settings in there. at start up the tray will get ur settings loaded (providing that u have atitray in startup folder)

    i'd disable all that is ATI related (ccc, hotkey polled ..) at start up. They hardly ever work right

    cheers ...
