- A friend of mine has an LC with 16 colors. The weird thing is, whenever
- i go to the Monitors Control Panel and set it to 16 colors, it goes back to
- black and white mode. The apple icon on the apple menu is black and white
- and icons are displayed in black and white (unless it's labeled, then the
- whole thing is one color). Programs still work in Color.
-
- He's running System 7.
-
- I tried replacing the monitors cp, the finder, and eventually the entire
- system. no help. No, when i switch to 16 colors, it goes to 16 colors, until
- i leave the monitors control panel. then back to black and white, although
- it still says i'm in 16 colors.
-
- anyone seen this behavior? help!
-
- i'll only be on internet for a week, so replies after that won't be read for
- a month.
-
- thanx in advance for any help.
