How do I get my 2nd monitor to show more than 4 bit colors? ?

Question

I have recently reformatted my computer in order to get it running better. Of course in the process I have had a hard time getting things to work as they did before. One of my problems has been running my 2nd monitor.

I have 2 video cards (an ATI X300 and a NVIDIA GeForce 6200) and I am having problems with the monitor connected to the GeForce. Logic would say go to the website, download the drivers, uninstall whatever I had and install the good. This hasn't worked yet, so I'm doing something wrong.

Please enlighten me.

Answer 1

try this:

Right click on desktop

click properties

Go to setting tab

choose highest color quality.

(but make sure drivers are installed)

Answer 2

you have to go into the bios and change the setting of how the video can be displayed. Also, there may be a program missing that you have to install in order for it to work.
