Hello there folks. I have noticed that my monitor or graphic card, I dont know for sure, is changing the resolution every time I exit any of my games. When I start some certain game, Doom III for example, the screen blinks, and than spreads nicely when game starts over whole display. When I quit the game, my screen resolution got smaller and I can see black border around my desktop. The refresh rate is also different. Why do I have to change this to my regular every time after playing games? Thanks in advance.

This is happening because the screen resolution and the game resolution is not the same. You have probably 1024*768 for your desktop and the game probably runs on 800*600 or 640*480. Make both resolutions equal and this wont happen no more I think. It is normal when playing games, but regarding your refresh rate, I think you should install display drivers again.
