    Remember Windows XP Fullscreen Resolution?

    Hi there!

    I just wanted to ask a quick question: When I switch to Fullscreen Mode and change the Resolution to 1900*1200 (iMac 24") I have to redo this every time I switch to Fullscreen mode. It doesn't remember my selected resolution.

    Is there any help? Thanks in advance!

    regards,
    Julian

    Using Parallels 3.0 Trial with parallels tools

    When i go to fullscreen and set my resolution in Windows to 1440x900 alls good. I then got back to OSX with the little window showing Windows. NOW, when i put windows back into fullscreen my resolution settings are lost and have to reset them back to 1440x900.

    Whats going on? Never had this trouble using 2.5

    Hello Cymru
    You should go to Parallels Desktop->Menu->Preferences->Appearance and uncheck "change mac OS X resolution"

    That fixed it for me too. Why would you ever want that option?
