mouse freezing
My pc is saying something is not right with the display settings... having
to do with color. It wants to run on 256 color rather than the true color setting used for at least 2 years, maybe 3. My machine is Intel Celeron 10 GB harddrive, l28MB Ram. Can you advise what has caused this to start happening? When the mouse freezes and I unplug and reboot, a window comes up that a certain device needed for display is missing and it puts me in safe mode unless I bypass. In safe mode, the screen area changes and the color setting is 256. I've run it this way a few weeks, but would like to know the cause, so as to fix it back as it used to be. Thanking you so much in advance. |
