This happens when I change resolution.

This isn't a real problem, just a minor annoyance. I run my Samsung Syncmaster 204B monitor at 1024 X 768 normally, but I put it on 1600 X 1200 for playing World of Warcraft.

Changing from 1024 X 768 to 1600 X 1200 isn't a problem, but when I want to go from 1600 X 1200 back down to 1024 X 768, it usually takes 2 tries. When I change the numbers, and hit Apply or OK, the computer will pop open a window saying I need to restart the computer. I cancel that window and try again, and then it goes through the change.

Sometimes it does it on the first try, but 80% of the time it takes 2 tries.

I wonder why.

I go into Control Panel to change resolutions, I don't use the ATI screen for the video card.

System - Abit NF-7 V. 2.0
2500+ Barton unlocked @ 2.2 Ghz 1 GB of PC 3200 RAM
Radeon X700 Pro video card
Windows XP Home OS.

    Probably some quirk of the video driver. Update to the new 7.11 and see what happens.
