Okay, my friend bought a computer from a company that was upgrading their systems to newer systems. The computer is a basic pentium 166mhz with 32mb ram and win 95. I installed a cd rom, sound card, and upgraded to win ME. Works great, however, when I tried to install a cd game for the kids, it required the colors to be set at 256. When I looked at the settings, the only choice is 16 colors. The video driver is a pci vga standard. I thought maybe it needed an adapter card that used svga drivers the problem would be solved (if I thought wrong, please correct me). I went to change cards, but the video adapter seems to be built into the motherboard. I did plug another adapter into the isa slot which I had and I know uses svga drivers, but it's older and the drivers for it are lost somewhere. I tried using standard svga drivers, but didn't work. Plus, I know one adapter will conflict with the other. Do I need a new adapter card? if so, how do I disable the built-in adapter?Dave B. kism98_1@hotmail.com
