Hello All!

I recently reinstalled W2K and came up with a problem I hadn't noticed before.  
Before I go any frther, my machine is:

W2K SP2
400MHz CPU
384Mb of RAM (I remember when I started out, I had only 384K of RAM)
13Gig drive
ATI Rage 128 video card w/32Mb of memory
DirectX 8.1
Latest video drivers from ATI specifically for W2K.

The problem is I can't get out of 16 color mode no matter what I try.  During 
those times when I successfully changed to 1024x768x32-bit color mode, upon 
reboot, the monitor stayed blenk, so I have to press the reset button (the 
3-finger salute doesn't work) and press F8 to enable VGA mode.  I have googled 
this problem in the NGs, and have fouund no solution.  Any help appreciated.


Regards,

Roger
