I don't know much about the Q950, but my Centris 610 has two slots for more VRAM on the motherboard. VRAM is a special type of memory that is used for video display. The more VRAM that you have, the more colors at higher resolutions you can get. If you have slots for more VRAM, your color/resolution problem would clear up. Otherwise you will have to get a sperate video card to get more colors on higher resolution levels. I have found a couple sites that sell VRAM for around $6.00 per 256k stick. This would bring my total VRAM up to 1 Meg. 512k on board and 2 256k sticks. I hope this helps on your color problems. - John
