Turned the computer back on this morning and the resolution had reset itself to 800x600 from 1028x768. Kind of disappointing behavior.

Are you asking for some help? How about some info? What mac, what display, why 800x600, have you repaired permissions?

No havent touched that/those. It also changed the picture on my desktop. Not sure what else or why it would choose to do that. Weird, and disappointing behavior.

I am not sure whether it is possible any user intervention. May be you have reset one/more Apps.

Well if you're not going to tell us what machine you're using, you're not likely going to receive any useful advice.

Sorry - my mind is not in gear today - very looonnnggggg week. I have a G4, Quicksilver Power Mac, twin 1 ghz processors. Only thing I had done that might even have a chance of interferring with it was I downloaded a trial version of Filemaker to see how it worked before thinking about investing that much money. When I turned the computer back on part of it disappeared also so I uninstalled the rest. Only change I had made to the computer.
