we need more info. right click on the screen, go to prop[erties, and go to a tab that says something along the lines of desktop or something. the one where you can change your background. in that window you can change your resolutiona nd have it not look like poop poo.

I just got done wiping out my entire computer about 10 min. ago. What a difference it made. I lost about 5000 mp3's though. Didn't feel like burning them

I go to the Control Panel then to display and the settings but it shows only 16 colors i think its supose to be 32 My screen was normal before we deleted it all

Travis you goon, you should've asked me lol.

Just sounds like a basic driver problem, look up the model of your monitor online w/ your OS and download it/install/reboot

you have to know what kind of video card you have. then you go to the manufacturers website, download the drivers, install them, and you can change your colour depth and resolution.

take a screen shot and post it, thats the only way we can tell what your trying to say. 16 bit and 32 bit dont do that much, only wit shading and ---- like that, but its not important. unless your a picky sob and want it perfect.


other wise post up a screen shot.
