Can anyone help explain to me how I would check to see if my graphics card is set up correctly? I am having trouble displaying 256 colors on my Apple Studi Display monitor using my Dell Dimension 8100 PC. I can only see 16 colors. I was advised that it is the pc's graphics card that determines the number of colors displayed. "If the card's driver is set up ok (you can use the monitor with a similar spec to the ASD 17...." I am also working on figuring out what ASD 17 is. I installed a new hard drive and I don't have the Dell ResourceCD which may have certain drivers. Thanks!
