    Angry XP won't remember screen resolution

    I've just installede a new Zalman 7000a-Cu CPU-cooler on my machine, and everything went smooth.
    But now everytime I start up the computer it starts in the lowest screen resolution (480 x 600), wich quite frankly looks awfull.
    Any ideas of what is causing this.

    Welcome to Windrivers Powderking!

    In addition to checking that the seating is correct, before you shut down to do that though, uninstall the video card from device manager... then immediately shut down. You should also download the driver for your video card in case windows has a corrupt version.
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."
