Monitor resets - sort of

Hey guys, My monitor is acting really strange. I set the alignment settings (vertical/horizontal position) and they work fine, but when my monitor goes into power saving mode and then comes back (like when I turn off my computer) then it is all screwed up. Like the vertical height will be off the screen and the horizontal will be stretched off of the screen. I have tried different refresh rates/resolutions, etc. and nothing seems to fix it. What could the problem be and how can I fix it? Thanks for any help!

Are you setting the vertical/horozontal postions from the monitor? If so try looking in the dispaly settings. There is often vertical/horizontal setting there that will be retained.
