hello people....
i have just updated my g4 powerbook to 10.4.5. on the restart, my graphics have been reduced to what looks like 256k colours. i have tried a reinstall, repair really but get the same problem...in system preferences, it is showing that i have 32bit colour as normal.
any takers?
thanks in advance...

Delete the contents of ~/Library/Preferences/byhost and reboot (inside your home directory) and see if that helps.

thanks for the suggestion but i am afraid that has not worked.
the screen is ok until it fully boots up, goes to what looks like 256k colours.
i am thinking of a total reinstall and see what happens....
thanks again.
 
Try looking in "Universal Access" in the System Preferences -- specifically, the "Contrast" of the display. It may have inadvertently gotten turned up or something.
