How to Change Color Depth (5 Steps)

Right-click on the open portion of the Windows XP desktop, choosing 'Properties.' Next, select the 'Settings' tab item. A drop-down menu will appear listing your choices for 'Color Quality.'
Changing the screen resolution within the 'Settings' area will affect the range of choices available within the 'Color Quality' drop-down. Depending on how much graphic memory is available, the range of color-depth possibilities could shrink. Reducing screen resolution does the opposite.
Vista users should click on the 'Start' button. Click on 'Control Panel.' Click 'Appearance and Personalization.' Choose 'Personalization' and select 'Display Settings.' Pick the 'Colors' drop-down menu, selecting the highest available color-depth (often 32-bit).
Mac OSX users should select the 'System Preferences' item under the Apple menu. Pick the 'Displays' icon. Choose a preferred screen resolution under the 'Resolutions' area, then select the number of colors to display under the 'Colors' item.
CRT display users should proceed as was explained for LCD users.
