Problems with Screen resolution after playing games

I've been having this problem for a while now, and no matter what I try it
won't go away. Every time I play a game that runs in a different resolution
then my desktop it will not change back to desktop resolution. I've tried
uninstalling/reinstalling the video drivers and have even updated to the
latest video drivers.

Any ideas?

Thanks

If you turn down video hardware acceleration, does that help?

No actually, I just finished messing with all the settings and it seems to be
doing it no matter what.
