Or if you are running MapInfo 6.0 or later, use the Output > Preferences,
select Output settings and turn on the option for displaying raster in true
colour when possible.

David Booth:
Straight from the MrSid manual - 24-bit colour, not 16, but hope this
helps:
By default, MapInfo Professional, version 5.0 and earlier, displays all
imagery in 8-bit color mode. While this color conversion increases viewing
speeds of 24-bit RGB imagery, it may also cause considerable degradation in
image quality.
To view RGB images in 24-bit mode, make sure your monitor is set to view
24-bit or true color. Then follow these steps to add the UseTrueColor
system
variable to the Windows � reg-istry.
1. Select the Start menu, then select Run. Type
"regedit" and
select OK.
2. Select the following regedit directory:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
> SOFTWARE > MapInfo > Common
3. Select the Edit menu. Then select New and DWORD.
4. Name the new variable "UseTrueColor."
5. Right-click on UseTrueColor and select Modify.
6. Enter 1 in the data value box. (To revert to 8-bit
view,
change the 1 to a 0).
7. Select OK and close the registry.
8. Restart MapInfo.
