Using Opera on this Win98se comp just today the colour resolution has gone patchy, like a paint-by-numbers, but everything looks fine in IE. I reinstalled Opera, no change. I installed a firefox ver of a PCWorld disk and that does the same thing, colours in jpegs are rough, like safe mode, but the comp isn't in safe mode.

And as I said in IE everything looks fine. I've looked throught options and preferences and setting in both Opera and Firefox but can't see a fixit.

Anyone had this thing happen? Any Ideas? TIA

325216 2005-02-15 04:54:00 Have you checked your Desktop Display Settings your colour quality might be set 2 16bit instead of 32bit. Overdrive_5000 (4950)
325217 2005-02-15 04:56:00 Did that thanks. It's on 256. Maybe too much. Will go try. mark c (247)
325218 2005-02-15 05:03:00 256 ? How old is your monitor and video card? Overdrive_5000 (4950)
325219 2005-02-15 05:04:00 Billiant. The clours have come right when I reset it to 24bit true color. 32 bit isn't an option.

many thanks

325221 2005-02-15 05:14:00 I dunno, it's a friends. Old though. Whole system creaks along with win98se, got 6 gigs HD. mark c (247)
