SilverHaze420 Posted April 8, 2005 Posted April 8, 2005 So ya, I update my ATI drivers yesterday and download the new Catalyst 5.4 drivers and now I only have 4 bit graphics on my pc. Running X800 Pro and P4SDX. When I went to appwiz.cpl and uninstalled the ati stuff it worked again. Then I tried to redownload the drivers and got my 4 bit 640x480 again At that point I went to bed so I have not troubleshot it more but watch out with that new driver pack...

oneless Posted April 8, 2005 Posted April 8, 2005 the same problem is on also with any nVidia versus a clean install of XP with SP2 included .I have also a solution , maybe a little bizarre , but it is a solution.
SilverHaze420 Posted April 8, 2005 Author Posted April 8, 2005 Well the un-installer works but when I re-install the drivers I get the same problem! I am going to try the omega drivers now.*Edit*I was un-able to use the new 5.4 drivers. Had to roll back I am currently using 5.2 maybe there is some incompatibility with the new drivers and my hardware or something...
