Lost Resolutions : The reboot mystery. (ATI+Omega)

Hi ya fellows, oh i got you a doosy.

Recently, well yesterday i upgraded from my standard drivers,
to the last OMEGA driver build, everything was fine.
What i hoped to accomplish was to have my drivers tell my games,
and windows that 1366X768 ( my tv's native resolution ) actually did
in fact exist, but ALSO ! look just a degree better then 1360x768,
the resolution i forced Oblivion to with cfg hack because apparently
1366 broke the ui in half ( don't ask me ..... ).

I installed it, rebooted and there you go, all my games, Oblivion, World
Warcraft ( yes i play, not pray W.o.w. ) sims 2 etc, all showed 1366X768
and i was relieved, not every game came close to my native resolution,
wich made it hard to enjoy a good game....

The driver made me smile for oh, 9 hours, after wich i decided it was
time for bed. After i got back from work today my pc took a little longer
to reboot and what do you know, every program LOST the
1366X768:60hz not only that most likely 100's more. Luckly the driver
does allow to ignore my monitors safety features and allow for 1366 on win XP,
but i cant get it to work, its not listed in MultiRes or in my games,
I have tried alot of things but frankly i am going NUTS.

Why did half of my precious resolutions go out the window after i shut
down my computer, and why why why why why why why why why,
wont they come back.

The addicted gamer in me is started to get very annoyed and we all
know what that means ... i am grouchy. Can anyone help ? thank for
any bone you can throw me, just don't hit me in the face with one.
