this past sunday i was doing some work on my computer and
deleleting some files that were unneccessary and somewhere
in the process i must've lost my color settings, so now
the only color setting i have is 16 colors. to be more
specific im talking about the color settings in display,
settings and then there's a taskbar that allows you to
select the number of colors that your monitor/computer
reads/allows, and the only number im allowed to select
from is 16. you are supposed to be able to select from
16, 256, or true color, and the inability to do this has
screwed up my whole display, so if anyone could help me it
would be greatly appreciated, otherwise i will just reboot
windows 2000 professional

What kind of display adapter do you have and what resolution is it set at?
