 * Microsoft Windows 95

SYMPTOMS
When you try to use a video resolution higher than 640 x 480 x 16.7 million (24-bit) colors, you receive the following error message:

Your display adapter is not configured properly. To correct the problem, click OK to start the Hardware Installation Wizard.

CAUSE
The Windows 95 S3 video driver runs a 32-bit TrueColor mode requiring 4 megabytes (MB) of video RAM. Using the setting "Truecolor=24" in the [display] section of the SYSTEM.INI file turns on a 24-bit mode that requires less video RAM.

NOTE: This mode may not work correctly on all video adapters.

RESOLUTION
To use the "Truecolor=24" setting, use any text editor (such as Notepad) to open the SYSTEM.INI file. Add the line "Truecolor=24" (without quotation marks) to the [display] section of the file. Save and close the file, then shut down and restart Windows 95.
