I'm a little confused on your reasoning behind this.

WinScreenMode( winScreenModeGetSupportedDepths, ... ) will only query
the device for what it can physically display, not for what the OS can
actually display. 

I know that later on you adjust the maxBitDepth to what it should be
given the actual OS itself, but I have a couple comments...

1. I dont think that this will do anything to help solve the original
problem pointed out by Stefan Dannemann in
http://lists.rubberchicken.org/pipermail/plucker-list/2003-August/003091.html

2. What exactly is the point of using WinScreenMode() to get
maxBitDepth if you're only going to prop up the results later on.
