November 8, 2002, Newsletter Issue #60: Monitors That Won´t Go Past 256 Colors
Tip of the Week
You´ve got that great new 17" monitor you wanted, but hey, what´s this? The color depth won´t go above 256 colors??
Chances are you don´t have enough VRAM. If your Mac has only 1MB of VRAM, you may not be able to use a monitor of more than 15" ... BUT then again, you can always add a PCI graphics card with more VRAM to support your 17" display. Or, you could try setting your monitor to a lower resolution ... try 640x480 instead of 1024x768, and see if that makes a difference.
