recently installed windows 2k (pro) on a old laptop of mine. I don't really need it to do much, but I do need it to have more than it's current 16 colors only. I try to reset the screen resolution but it keeps reverting to the original one there (800x600) and only has an option for 16 colors. would be much obliged if someone could help me figure out what i can do to fix this. driver? been surfing around a while and can't figure it out.
cheers

Hi Arby,

Indeed your suspicion is correct- you need to change the existing driver to one more specific to the graphics in your laptop.

Once you load the correct one you should have all of the options that the hardware is capable of- i.e. higher resolution & colours.

What's the make/model of your laptop?
