Display resolution is not saving on reset

I have a dual display config, but my gfx card has only dvi, hdmi and dp, so I have to connect my older monitor through an adapter. It has 1280x1024 resolution, but every time I do system reset (shutdown works just fine), it drops to 1024x768. However, it can be fixed by unplugging and replugging the adapter in and out. I'm a little worried about whether these actions can damage hdmi port on my gfx card or not. Can this issue be resolved on software side?

I think we need more information on the card, monitor and adapter to help

Honestly, I personally I would just buy a used Dell with DVI or HDMI which if you keep an eye on eBay can be found stupid cheap a lot of the time in most countries. But I suspect that isn't the advice you are looking for. 

 

Hopefully, some tech wizard comes along with better advice for you, as when I was in the same boat recently I just did the cheap Dell eBay thing personally
