How do I make the "Do you want to keep these settings" box from appearing when I change my resolution?

Question

I had figured out how to get the prompt to stop coming up in the past, but apparently updating my video card drivers got rid of that, as now every time I change my resolution Windows asks me if I want to keep the settings, and gives 15 seconds before it automatically changed back to the prior settings. Given that I change my resolution every time I watch any videos(S-Video out to my TV), it gets pretty annoying.. I'm sure a solution is out there, since I had it configured the way I want it before.. thanks :)

Changing the screen resolution =/= formatting a hard drive.

I've had this set up in the past, I'm quite sure it's possible. I just can't remember how I did it. It was functioning this way for over a year and just a few days ago went back to asking me every time I changed the resolution. The few days ago coinciding with when I updated my video card drivers.

Answer 1

This reminder is a courtesy and warning. Some users appreciate having to stop and think before hitting the o.k. or "enter" button.

If you ever formatted the hard drive in error, and I did years ago on an older PC, you would have great appreciation for the warning.

I think it is built into the system and not yours to eliminate.

Answer 2

Your video card driver controls your screen resolution now. I don't think you can do anything about it.
