    Default After computer restart, my resolution is changed

    In the past two days of using ISBoxer when I restart my compuer my resolution is changed (lower resolution). I change it back, start up ISBoxer, play some WoW, exit out of everything, and all looks good (resolution still looks the way I want it to). Restart my computer and the resolution is lower again.

    Anyone else experienced this issue?

    Sounds like a registry problem or your video driver is corrupt. Also could be your video card is on its way out, but you generally get artifacts and bsod's if that were the case.

    I would start by downloading and installing the latest driver for your video card. If it still happens, run a system restore to a time before this started. Then hit it with some diags if the problem persists.

    Sorry, I should have mentioned that I just started using ISBoxer. I have to image it's something related, otherwise it's one hell of a coincidence

    have you tried logging onto the game, then saved settings in game, then logged out all the way so files/settings save then restart normally, and still have the problem?

    sorry not much help. =x

    Not experiencing this issue.
    But that's not much help to you.

    I'd suggest popping into the isboxer IRC.
    If its IS Boxer related, Lax would probably know the issue and the fix.

    If ISBoxer is messing with the game resolution (as stored in config.wtf), it would be popping up a notice box during Export requesting to do so first. Either way if it comes after a reboot I don't know what that would be.

    ISBoxer does try to sync the res in config.wtf with your Window Layout, as long as that particular Character doesn't have Window Layouts with conflicting main region sizes -- in which case it will leave it be.

    By "resolution is changed" I assume you're talking about the selected resolution in WoW's video options, not like the Windows desktop resolution or the actual size of the window?

    Although it happened twice this weekend, I cannot replicate the problem which means everything is good for now

    It was my Window's desktop resolution.

    I believe it may have had to so with creating new toons through ISBoxer for my second battlenet account, which seems to have problems the first time I log in to the toons (automatically puts game in full screen mode, other weird things).

    Sorry to confuse things I'll update this thread if I can find out how to replicate the problem.
