Default Monitor Resolution set too high, use safe mode to fix,now have only 16 colors

If you cannot get all the display options that your display adapter supports
in normal mode, then you need to install the correct drivers for the
adapter. They may be available at the www site of the display adapter
manufacturer, or they may be on a CD that was supplied with your machine or
with your display adapter card.

I am using Windows 98 4.10.1998 with an an old AST computer with SiS 6326

Rev C5 display adapter,software version 4.0. The resolution was set higher
than the card could display by my sister in the control panel by accident to
1024x1024 and I had to go into safe mode to reset to 600 x 480. The problem
is the menu doesn't allow any option but 16 colors. How can I get out of
this mode of only i6 colors and back to 800x600, 256 colors that I was using
before. Is my display adapter damaged? You help will be greatly appreciated.
