TICKET ARCHIVE -> Change of Bit Depth

No Wonder User - Sep 17, 1998 - 6:07 pm

Knowledge Level: I'm New!
Problem: Software
Computer Type: Apple
Model: 8500/120
RAM: Not related
RAM Enhancer: None
OS Version: Not related

Description:
When I upgraded from 7.6.1 to 8.1, my Monitor Bit Depth changed from Millions to Thousands and now I cannot get back to Millions (Thousands is the only option). VRAM is maxed out, monitor is 1024x768 and both of these were as before the upgrade. What's going on? Any ideas?

Hi Douglas and welcome to No Wonder!

You should be able to view millions of colours at 1024x768.

Have you zapped the PRAM?
Or trashed the Monitor and Sound preferences file?


Cheers
