Q158549

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Internet Explorer version 3.0 for Windows 95

-

SYMPTOMS
When you are viewing a Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) document that contains JPEG (.jpg) images, the images may be displayed as static or random characters.

CAUSE
The current color palette setting is set to 16-color mode.

RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use either of the following methods:


 * Change the color palette to 256 colors or higher. To change the Color Palette setting, follow these steps:


 * Click Start, point to Settings, and then click Control Panel.
 * Double-click Display.
 * Click the Settings tab.
 * In the Color Palette box, click a setting with more than 16 colors.

NOTE: If your system does not support more than 16 colors, you will not be able to select a higher setting.
 * Click OK.
 * Upgrade your current version of Internet Explorer to version 3.02. Internet Explorer 3.02 has an improved graphics rendering engine that can successfully display JPEG images in 16-color mode.
