Hi Steve, I shouldn't be touching on C500 questions, as I've never even seen one, but what the hell. Depending on your monitor size and the resolution it's being run at... the measly 1 mb of VRAM on the board might only be capable of 256 colors. Pick yourself up a cheap video card, even an old TwinTurbo 4 mb card, and you'll have millions of colors, even at 1024x768 resolution. -Howie -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
