I just got a computer, and the operating system is Windows ME. I took my GeForce2 Graphics Card out of my old computer and put it in this one. After it was installed, I was prompted to restart my computer. Now, i'm stuck on 16-bit color mode and 640 X 480 resolution. I've tried almost everything...i've tried re-installing the GeForce2 and the monitor. We have no duplicate drivers either. Seeing as how the GeForce2 came with the old computer, it didn't have a CD I could use for reference. Any help would be apprieciated.

Hmm, it really sounds like a driver issue. Have you downloaded the latest drivers for your card?

Doesnt it let you change the colors in Display properties/settings?

If not the drivers have not loaded.
.
Download the latest drivers from nvidia.com.

Try to download more up to date drivers.

Go to this link for the drivers for it.

It is 18.5mb.
