Hi Simon, Thanks for the advice, but I', afraid it has come a little late for me.
Continuing my efforts to fix the problem and having to reboot several times, eventually I booted up to no screen at all. Rescue mode showed that the config file was empty and I couldn't access the backup file. So I bit the bullet and reinstalled, this time installing the nvidia 173 driver which is not showm as recommended and the machine rebooted into the correct resolution. My pleasure was short-lived however because Firefox would not function. It took ages to boot then would not accept mouse clicks. So I unistalled the 173 nvidia driver and installed the 186 (recommended) driver and lo and behold, on rebooting I have permanent 1920x1080 resolution and everything works swimmingly!
