I installed Windows NT 3.51 Workstation on a Pentium-3 machine with an AOpen 32 MB AGP Video Card (VGA?) and it only shows up with 16 color support. I want it to have 256 colors. Please help.

NT 3.51 is a very old operating system and it's highly unlikely that there are any compatible drivers for your video card. It was made back in the days of the 486 PC. With an up to date system like that it would be much better to run at least Windows NT 4.0, or preferably 2000 or XP.

Then again if 2000 is too expensive you could always buy an older video card that is supported under NT 3.51

First fine out what chipset your current video card uses and see if there are any drivers for it.
