Problem
I have a laptop with a 1680x1050 resolution and another screen with a 1920x1080 resolution. Everytime I reboot Windows, my screens change to a common (lower) resolution and mirror instead of extend. How can I make Windows remember that they should be extended instead of mirroring?

Fix for: Windows 7 constantly forgets my dual-monitor setup
Low Risk
I was having the same issue, and trying what Mitchell suggested in his comment helped. I disabled Live Mesh remote connections (didn't have to uninstall the software) and on the next restart my screen resolution stayed at what I configured.
