    Hi, i have a Dell Vostro 1500 with the 8600M GT. I bought the laptop in November so not too long ago. Recently i've been getting a problem where when i reset my laptop or shut it down, the next time i turn it on my color quality in Settings under the properties is reset down to 8 bit ( Lowest ) and i would have to set it back to 32 bit. The next time i restart / shutdown same thing happens. Is there a setting somewhere that is setting it back to default ? If so, where is this setting for me to change it ?
