I have created user accounts, when I logon to any account, the screen
resollution remains as I set in the previous account

As far as I know screen resolution changes affect all users (the same with
XP). There may be some third party tools/drivers out there that allow this
however.

XP has this same shortcoming. After installing Vista, I was disappointed,
but not surprised, to see MS never did listen to all of the complaints about
this and fix it for the release of Vista.

I used XP Keep per user display settings in XP and have installed it in
Vista and it works there too.

Sometimes, it is little things like having your own display resolution that
mean a lot to home users. MS would rather spend time creating such wonders
as UAC, but I digress.

You can get XP Keep per user display settings here:

MVP Doug Knox did develop a small application that enabled per user display
settings for XP, but this application has not been testing and is not
recommended for Vista. I'm sure someone will come up with a soulution for
this.
