What would the command line be to change my resolution to 1680x1050 to 1770x1000 to 1920x1080? I need to make a batch file that does all this. My reason being a certain overscan issue I face because im using dvi to hdmi on a ATI 4850. I know what the problem is and how to fix, but I wont be able to fix it for awhile. So it would help me alot if someone could help me make a batch file that changes my resolution to 1680x1050 to 1770x1000 to 1920x1080.

Thanks in advance, I'd appreciate any input.

I made you 3 bat files that changes your screen resolution to the ones you wanted.Here is the link to download it:

http://www.sendspace.com/file/7xzrb1

Extract the file and you will have 3 folders.Each folder's name tells you what resolution will adjust and inside of each of those 3 folders you have 2 files.For example if you want to set your resolution to 1680x1050,go to the folder called "RC - 1680x1050" and inside you will find 2 files.PLACE THEM BOTH ON THE PLACE FROM WHERE YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR SCREEN RESOLUTION TO 1680X1050.

NOTE: Your screen monitor MUST support these resolutions otherwise it won't work!



Cheers!

Works like a charm, Thanks!
I made it work with one batch file. I had added the exit line to each of your .bats and made a new one which would run all of them in a sequence. I also fixed the 1000p bat you had made; I changed the 1770 to 1776. Its also 5kb smaller, now 3kb xD.
The new .bat I made:
start RC1680.bat
choice /d y /t 4 > nul
start RC1776.bat
choice /d y /t 4 > nul
start RC1920.bat
choice /d y /t 2 > nul
exit

Just discovered this.
Still works a treat even on Windows 8.1 X64.
I'd like to be able to set things up so that when I open a video I can have the resolution changed and then have the video opened by VLC and then have the resolution reset when VLC completes.
I have a tried a couple of things but unfortunately I have neither the skill nor the knowledge to achieve my goal.
I would welcome any suggestions.

Thanks in advance. :)
