Incorrect display settings!
I have installed Windows 98 on a friends PC, the
installation went fine, however I can't change the colour settings to include 256 colours. The only settings we have are 2 and 16. The computer is a Gateway, with a Gateway VX700 monitor. Any idea's or suggestions would be gratefully received. |

Incorrect display settings!
Hi Andy,
This usually indicates that there is an incorrect video driver installed. Here's some information on replacing the video driver. Go to the Gateway web site and download the video driver for that system and install it per there instructions. That should fix it. The driver may also be on a disk that came with the system. -- Regards, Bert Kinney [MS-MVP DTS] http://dts-l.org/ How to Configure Outlook Express for Internet News: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=171164 "Andy" wrote I have installed Windows 98 on a friends PC, the installation went fine, however I can't change the colour settings to include 256 colours.
