How do I "Lock" the screen resolution w/GMA HD (i3-530 Dell 580s)?

How do I "Lock" the screen resolution w/GMA HD (i3-530 Dell 580s)?

I have a Dell 580s with Win 7 x86 (yes 32 bit). Displaying on a Panisonic TH-37PX60U (720p). If I leave the computer running and power up the TV, frequently Media Center is displayed at about 25% of the screen area in a box centered in the display. I am not sure of the screen resolution but as soon as I minimize Media Center, the desktop returns to full resolution. I am then prompted with a Windows notification that my screen resolution is set to a resolution that is not ieal for my monitor.

Give PowerStrip a try, it ain't free but it works best for me when dealing with multiple displays and different resolutions.
