bonestonne Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 graphics may just barely be compatible at the same time, do you have your screen resolution set to display millions of colors? if not, then that would explain the lack of color.

Lucky Evie Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 All you need to do is this: Reboot the computer Hit F2 during POST to access the Bios Go to Integrated Peripherals Set Graphics Memory from 1MB to 8MB Save, reboot, and Bingo!

Hagar Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 yeah, you have the 4-bit greyscale bug.. as Lucas said above, max out your video memory in bios to get colour. VESA graphics is all you can hope for with that chipset, however, so don't expect too much.
