9700 Pro- Wont keep resolution on restart ?

[Bucky69]

Im running a new tyan radeon 9700 pro I installed the newest drivers, omega drivers ect. ect. all get the same results. Every time i restart my computer i have to re-adjust my resolution it defaults back to 640x480.
I have the newest VIA drivers, monitor driver is installed and reinstalled .
I tried unchecking the dcc tab in the advanced video properties...
Ive tried reforce refresh fix.....Nothing works....

Please dont tell me to reformat. "Thats what I tell people when I dont have a clue whats wrong"

Are you using a KVM at all?

If so remove it from the equation and test.

Keyboard/Video/Mouse switchbox.

And I hate to say it, but - format. It sounds like in your driver-orgy you probably put enough conflicts in there to gag an elephant.

May seem a little obvious, but are your monitor drivers installed correctly?

Are you running an NT based system? If you so try setting your account to have administrator privileges.

Also if you had a previous video card then you need to make sure you remove all traces of its drivers and software, especially refresh rate forcing programs.

I bet the refresh rate is =60Hz even if you set it higher before the restart...
