Screen res and multiple users

    Anyone know how to get a different screen res to be automatically applied to the XP desktop for different user profiles. My daughter plays a disney game that has to run at 640x480 to fill the screen, but she's too young to change the res herself. The catalyst drivers had a way to change the res depending on what app is run but the option seems to have disappeared with version 5.5...

    If you know where to find the .exe of that game (should be in Program Files > Disney > whatever game or something similar), you could then right-click the .exe and go to the compatibility tab where you can set the resolution that will be used for that game.
