Although my problem is minor it is irritating.
My monitor is set to show 16-bit colour via an NVidia 32Mb GeForce2 card but the desktop icons appear using only 16 colours. (Icon files have more than 16 colours).
Computer is a P4, 1.8GHz, 256Mb RAM running Win2000 Pro.
Helpful responses gratefully accepted. |

Go to CONTROL PANEL\DISPLAY\EFFECTS and check the box marked SHOW ICONS USING ALL POSSIBLE COLORS. If it's already checked uncheck it and after reboot check it again. |

Thanks C,
Solution worked for .ico icons but had no effect on icons found in .exe files. Surely they can't all be 16 colours or less?
Ciao. |

I've never checked into it before, but as far as I can tell .exe icons are 16 color. By the way you're welcome. |
