How can I set the
server display to 256
colors on Windows
2003?
To set the server display to 256 colors:
• Right-click desktop.
• Select
Properties .
• Click the
Settings tab.
• Click the
Advanced button.
• Click the
Adapter tab.
• Click the
List All Modes... button.
• Select, for example:1024x768, 256 Colors, 60 Hertz.
Reason for setting the server display to 256 colors:
The FPGA does color matching the best it can. However,
sometimes when a color is borderline, it displays differently
than what you would expect. If you can't see the color
correctly, change the color depth to 256 colors on the
managed system.
