Wrong color in dsl program.
« on: June 16, 2005, 04:18:07 PM »
Trying to reinstall my dsl program after a system crash where my hd was completely wiped.  Have reinstalled Win98 and checked the hd for errors, etc. and reinstalled the basic programs I need (ie. MSOffice), but when I load up the CD for my dsl program, the colors on the logo are wrong, and some parts of pages are missing, such as pictures and places where you make choices.  I cannot complete the installation because of missing parts.

Any clues?  Checked the CD itself on my laptop, its fine.

    Yes, did that.  The dsl program is that only thing that is acting this way.  Been online with my IP, they say its not the program, its within my pc.

    256.  Tried to go at dsl loadup in a different way and got the message that the internet connection wizard failed to load from Win98SE install.  Not sure if that matters, since the dsl program has its own wizard.

    Your ISP is correct. It is your computer. You need a minimum of 16Bit colours.

      If you don't know the answer, it isn't a dumb question.

      Yes, they are, but it refused to load them.  Something else to deal with.  Oh, it's BellSouth dsl.
