[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1339939, member: 46727"] When running VMWare Fusion or Parallels for that matter, drivers are supplied by the VM not Windows 98SE. It doesn't matter that the 98SE control panel settings for color depth might be 16, 256, or 32 bit (full), it's a limitation of what Fusion supplies. I have run XP within Fusion and get full color depth regardless of how I set it. Anyway, why do you need 16 colors? Unless it's some older game or program that won't run with anything greater than 16 colors, it should be OK to use the maximum color depth. [/QUOTE]
