Default can't change display resolution

Did you read my response posted two days previous to yours?

Reboot to Safe Mode
Open Device Manager
Remove ALL Display Adapters
Remove ALL Monitors
Reboot to Normal Mode - Windows will reinstall the required drivers -
hopefully curing your problem.

I installed a pop up stopper and Spybot and after that my
display is on 16 colors and the lowest resolution and I'm
unable to change it. I tried everything in the trouble
shooter but I can't fix it. My system restore doesn't
seem to be working either. I uninstalled the pop up
stopper and Spybot but I still can't get the display to

go
back to 256 colors.
