	Typically what happens is that Windows wants to autodetect your
monitor and comes up with a different (usually bogus default) idea than
it does from a "clean" boot.  The ONLY way I've ever been able to deal with 
this is to bring up either the vendor's display utility (video card or
laptop vendor) or the Windows one and manually set my display parameters.
It usually bites me on KVMs because

	I don't use hibernate since it almost never works right and sometimes
majorly screws up.  If sleep won't do then I just turn it off.
