Windows – How to switch WIndows 7 to more than 256 colors

colorsdisplaywindows

Installed Windows 7 in Virtual Box, and started old (from 1999) game in it. All worked fine, but on exit from game, Windows switched to 256 colors. And it's virtually unusable. Some buttons are black on black.

Is there any way to switch windows again to normal 24/32bit color depth?

  1. Right clicking desktop
  2. Clicking "change resolution"
  3. Clicking "advanced settings"
  4. On the "monitor" tab at the bottom you can change the colors.
