Unless you have a component embedded into the page that can execute
code, I don't believe you are going to be able to get those details.

Furthermore, you should decide what the minimum requirements for your
website are, and then stick to that. I think that there are certain
assumptions you can make which are reasonable, though, such as 800 x 600
resolution, and 16 (most likely 24) bit color.

You should make an estimate what you think is the reasonable minimum
that the vast majority of your visitors have.

If you for example make a forum for programmers, you can assume that all
of them know enough about computers to be able to choose a high
resolution and a lot of colors. If you on the other hand make a download
site for graphics drivers, you can assume that a lot of the visitors
have really low resolution and 16 colors.
