Mirror changes the resolution

classnetdd · 06-06-2012, 03:32 AM

Installed the latest displaylink driver on a Dell Vostro 320 connected to a projector. I need to set this on a 1024x768 display which stays well in extend mode. If i changed this to mirror, it will revert to the native resolution of 1440x900. When i toggled back to extend mode, it changes back to the resolution that i want. Is there a way to stop mirror from using the native resolution and just stay at the preferred resolution?
Also lots of people are logging into the pc and it seems that the default resolution when they log on to windows is 1440x900. Funny thing is that the resolution 1024x768 is only seen at the logon screen. Once logged on and going into desktop, it blanks out for a while and resolution changed. I need everyone who logs on to stick to one resolution.
Tested on an external monitor and giving the same issue so I don't think its my projector issue.

Thanks.
