I have an IBM P70 series monitor and it doesn't have the right drivers to display in 256 colors mode. I searched on windows, IBM, and a bunch of drivers site but I couldn't find what I needed. Any Help?
Are you sure you have correct video drivers for your graphics card? My guess would be that is the thing stopping you going over 256 colour. If not then try drivers from IBM, here is there page, it asks for a 4 digit code for P series, prolly on the back of the monitor. http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/s.../downloadsDriversLandingPage.vm&validate=true Hope it helps.
yes i dont think it is to do with your monitor drivers, sounds a lot more like video card drivers are wrong. but wait... you say you actually want it do display in 256 colours? or is that just a mistake in how you typed the sentence?
the monitor justs displays the colors that the videocard sends it. so what videocard do you have & what is it outputting presently in colors like 2, 16, 256, 16bit, 24bit or 32bit??
