Set number of Colors displayed

The number of colors displayed significantly affects the appearance of both both text and pictures. If the color for your display is set too low, you are missing a more realistic look especially in the pictures you view.

2) Select Properties and ‘display properties' window opens. 

3) Select the Settings tab and in the 'Colors' (98) or ‘Color Quality’ (XP) section and choose the highest color setting available. 

4) Click OK. 

Note: You may have to try a different settings to get the one that provides the best viewing for your monitor and video driver.
