12911 2001-05-20 21:20:00 I think that my sound and graphics cards are on my motherboard...but I cannot change the settings for my graphics. It won't change from 16 colors and the graphics are big and won't let me change to a smaller size.
I have windows me everything else seems to be working ok.

TIA

12912 2001-05-20 23:00:00 to change screen size and colour right click on desktop then go to Properties goto settings

Move screen area first then restart
then move the colors to 24bit true color then restart

I have had this on old graphics cards running ME

Good Luck

What sort of Gfx is it?
Not having the correct or and uptodate driver can cause what you describe.

If you have onboard graphics, the drivers will be on your motherboard disk. Your motherboard manual or a help file on the CD will tell you about the drivers and how to load them.

P.S. I wouldn't set the colour any higher than 16 bit high colour unless you have a pretty powerful computer. Higher settings will significantly increase the workload of your CPU. You will not see much of an improvement in the display, but will notice decrease in performance.
