I do not have a Vista machine to hand, so I cannot check myself at the
moment, but...

Can you have a certain resolution set on one account and then have another
resolution set on another account, in Vista? I seem to remember that this
was not possible in Vista for some lame reason.

Unfortunately, it is not possible.
It has been asked before; and that's what the experts say!

Nope, you can't.

Suggested by Malke [MVP]
MVP Doug Knox created a utility to do this in XP. I have no idea if it
will work in Vista, but here's the link:

Click on Win XP Utilities and then on Keep User display Settings. If you
decide to use this (and it will run), make a System Restore point first.
Or you may wish to contact Doug about it first.
