Wow, that's evil! I hate when people reset my color depth. Did you try going into the director movie, and changing the 8 to a 32, and then running it? If director did it in the first place, maybe director can undo it.

I played an old demo movie that was made for Director 5 or 6 and it had the
following code:

on startMovie
  global oldDepth
  if the colordepth <> 8 then
    set oldDepth = the colordepth
    set the colordepth = 8 -- for palette operations
  end if
end

It messed up all the colors of my system (Windows XP - Pentium 2.4 GHZ
Intel). So afterwards I reset my settings manually to 32 bit color, and it helped partially, but all my programs still open up in black and white only. Even Director and Photoshop and Outlook Express all appear in black and
white. I can see pictures and movies in color, but the actual programs
appear in black and white. For example, in Photoshop I can't distinguish
between the layers in a picture, they all appear black and white. I
restarted my system, and even closed the computer over night but nothing helps. Does anyone have any ideas?? (I can send a screen shot if anyone
wants to see what I mean).

Thanks!!
