I have a Thinkpad A22m running XP Pro that randomly seems to switch into 
virtual screen mode and I can't figure out why it's doing this.

I normally run at the full 1024x768 resolution, however sometimes on a full 
restart and more often when coming out of hibernation, the machine switches 
to 800x600 display with a virtual 1024x768 resolution where you move the 
cursor to the edge of the screen to scroll to see the rest of the virtual 
screen.

This probably happens  may 2 or 3 times out 10 when starting the machine. 
I've googled and checked the ibm website, however hits I get don't cover this 
case.

Restarting the computer generally resolves the problem until the next time. 
>From what I remember with an older TP I had years ago, you could control this 
will hotkeys or function keys, however I've been unable to get that working 
on this machine.

Anyone have any ideas on what causes this and how to permanently resolve it?
