Windows ME video problem

[Robert16]

   I have a Dell P4 with windows ME installed ,after a crash and start in safe mode my video only starts in 16 colors with lowest res. It wont let me change it and everything else seems ok. I tried another video card. Same problem .im not sure where to begin my troubleshootiing. Do you have any suggestions? Thank-you.

Install the proper drivers.

In safe mode, you cannot go above a certain amount of colours.
