Different display resolution for different users in XP

[Tom D.]

Is there any way to have different screen resoultion set up for different
user accounts in XP?
When one user on my machine changes screen resolution, it changes for all
users.

Display settings and color depth applies to all users:

I tried the program XP-Keep-per-User-Display-Settings, that works well for me.
Thanks!
