Display Color

[Laura]

I had Netsky invade my computer, so I disabled the syste,
restore to get rid of it. I had my one of my sons discs
in the drive at the time so when it rebooted it seems like
it selected the games 16 colors as a default. Since then
I rebooted with Windows Millenium to get everything back
in working order, and it seems ok but it will only come up
with 16 colors no matter how many times I change it in the
Display box to 256 colors of 16 bit. Where do I go to
unlock this default to change the color and how to I make
sure the color default is correctly configured?

Sounds like your Display Adapter driver is no longer being properly
recognised, is incorrectly set-up, or is corrupted.

Boot into Safe Mode and in Device Manager, 'Remove' any/all Display Adapters
and Monitors and then re-boot.
WinMe *should* re-detect (Plug&Play) your video card and monitor and then
should install the 'correct' drivers.

If it still doesn't help, you'll need to install the latest WinMe driver for
your Video Card (Adapter) which you should be available to download from the
card manufacturers web site.

HTH and good luck
