how to customise desktop setting for different user in winXp. i have created different user, but if one user changes screen resolution, that screen resolution become effective for all user. how to stop this.


in windows 98/Me we can easy customise this for different users by
control panel- passwords - user profiles - user can customize their preferences and desktopsettings.

I think you need a 3rd party app to do thin in xp. Check out MultiRes
