16 bit colour is not the same as 16 colour.

You'll need to install the appropriate drivers - Everest can help you ID everything


I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

Ok - 'standard pci vga' means nothing - that's the generic video driver. The monitor model is not that important either. Download and run Everest to identify the actual hardware (if you're unsure), then search out the drivers online if you don't have a driver disk.

download BELARC. It will tell you what is on your computer. Then you can go to
www.driverguide.com and locate a driver that will let you do this. I had the same trouble when I reinstalled 98SE and this worked for me.
