Interesting. I would do it with EnumDisplaySettings passing=20
in something like ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS:

  struct foo {
    DEVMODE dm;
    char driversSuck[ 1024 ];
  };
  foo f;
  BOOL b =3D EnumDisplaySettings( NULL, ENUM_CURRENT_SETTINGS, &f.dm );

Look at f.dm.dmPelsWidth, f.dm.dmPelsHeight and f.dm.dmBitsPerPel.

The "driversSuck" field is empirically determined to be necessary=20
on some systems to avoid stack overwrites.

Cheers,
