Why don't you try the same.

Thanks for dropping a note after so long...

Ends up the problem was, of all things, a defective VGA cable! Apparently, a short in the cable was causing the reboots during resolution switching!

To this day, I've NEVER had a more difficult problem to track down.

Thanks for taking the time to answer though....
