Sounds like you may be defaulting to the Safe Mode.....do you see "Safe
Mode" in each corner of your screen? Assuming that the above is not the case, chances are your video driver has been lost or become corrupt and your machine is reverting to Standard VGA mode, which is actually, 800x600x16 colors. Then again, your video card could be on the fritz (could be as simple as 'reseating' your video card). The following KB article should help, if drivers be the case........ http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;200435 If you are, in fact, starting in the Safe Mode, we'll try something else. Post back, either way and let us know. Heirloom, old and probably drivers "Stefan" wrote in message ...

I had this same problem recently and after trying everything including
reloading my video drivers I determined my problem was a bad video card. I replaced it and all has worked well since. "Stefan" wrote in message ...
