Toshiba Laptop Monitor Problem

I had a problem accessing the internet and reinstalled Windows 95 from my original 28 floppy disks which corrected that problem. Now I can't get the monitor to provide 256 colors even though before I reinstalled Windows 95 the system functioned fine with 256 colors. The monitor is a laptop display panel (1024x768). The Chips & Tech Super VGA has drivers vmm32.vxd (vdd.vxd) and vmm32.vxd(vflatd.vxd) 4.03.00.1096 1992 - 1996. Where can I get drivers that will give me 256 colors? Thanks, Joe

Hi Joe, seawatch, hi everyone
You shouldn't settle for 256 colors when you probably can have more out of the system. :-) Depending on the family/model of your laptop that is. May need to settle for the next lower resolution (800*600), than you may be able to have 16 bits High color. Looks so much better.
If you can post back the family/model of your Toshiba Laptop, a direct link to the official Toshiba download site for your laptop could be posted here. With that link you can get all available drivers for your laptop needed, including a manual and/or technical specs. if available.
