Go to 'Control Panel' and then 'Display'. You'll find stuff like that there.How to change screen display?
I have the same problem and my system is already set on those settings and it still keeps telling me to change my monitor to the settings!



My screen is 1024 x 768 pixels. It's on 256 colors. And on 32-bit. But it still won't run the game.

Simple my friend, go to control panel on the start menu. Click control panel and click Display. You can change your wallpaper, screensaver, and other stuff that relates to the display.
Right click on empty desktop/properties/settings

then your there
Right click on the RON and hit compatibility and click run in 256 colors
Go to ';Start'; (bottom left of you monitor), then ';Settings';, then ';control panel';, then choose ';display'; click and you will see some tabs so you will click ';settings'; and you can set your monitor. If your monitor can run that way then you can set it for your choice of settings.
Hi



Ok , first you need to be sure that your video card CAN run rise of nation , so , open control panel , then open video or graphic then at the last tab at the bottom it should say the video resolution and then the amount of color is running with that resolution , so for ex , if it says

800x600 and the colors are at 16mb well no chance there



i think the setting you looking for is



1024x768 with colors 256
best answer,

Right click anywhere on the desktop.

Select last option ';Properties';.

Click on last tab, ';Settings';.

On the left hand side you will find ';Colours'; and a drop down button beside it. Click on the drop down button and choose the second option which says ';High Color(16Bit)';

Click on Apply after selecting it.

You will get a Display Properties message. Read it and click ';OK';.



You may then play your game... :-)
