Icons shows in 256 color in 16-bit color depth.

[Henrik]

Run my computer in 1600x1200 resolution and my graphic
card can only supply me with a 16-bit color depth in that
resolution. Problem is that my icons shows up in 256
colors. I have to go down to 1152x864 resolution to get 32-
bit color depth and to get my icons show up as i want them
to.

Im not 100% sure about it but i think ive started to get
this problem after i installed tweakUI and removed the
shortcut overlay image on the shortcuts (The little arrow
thingy).

Ive looked through the some articles but i couldnt find
anything that matched my problems.

My gfx card is an ATI rage pro turbo agp 2x and ive
connected an 19" Compaq S900 to it btw. Running on XP with
SP1.
