Stuck on 16 colors.

[RunicPoet]

My main computer won't be working for another few weeks so I decided to use my old computer (Compaq w/ Windows ME ) until I can get my other computer back. The problem I'm having is that it seems I'm stuck on 16 colors, and only one resoloution. I've tried going into my proporities and it only apears that I have 16 colors. This has happend befor and I was told that there was a very easy solution. Any help would be wonderful, thanks.

Howdy and welcome to CTH:

The fix is as easy as installing the proper drivers for the video card..

Not to be a pain, but this is sort of urgent, I need to update some of the files in a server I'm running, so if you have any advice, I need it asap.

Go to the ATI site and download the driver for that particular Radeon vid card and your OS.. Install it and away you go..
