display changes after sleep

I am running windows vista basic on my dell 1420 laptop. When I close the
lid the computer goes to sleep. When I open the lid to resume, sometimes the
display settings are changed from 1280 x800 to 800x 600. I need my screen
never change from 1280 x 800, what can I do?

vista sleep is energy eating...

see my "vista is a crime to humanity" post today and enable hibernate
instead

I prefer to stay with sleep. Any other suggestions? I think it may be a
bug...

I have the same problem with my Sony Viao, and it is set to hibernate.
