you mean start up your computer or a game? bc you can control it with either a task tool that your vid card provides or right click properties. but if its reseting, your monitor may not support a res greater than that. if you can change it back and its reseting, theres a start up entry that has it saved to that. see if you have a theme or something that starts with windows saved.

which game? cs:s? because if you messed around with the start up properities in steam, it does that.. just clear whatever you have in there... or if its some other game... then i have no idea...

wierd, when ur game starts, it automatically sets the computer res to the game res (which im assuming is 800x600). but when you switch out it supposed2 change back to normal, even if you minize gm. hav u tried minimizing (alt+tab) or is it jus when u close it?
