I have upgraded to 64 vista, but problem with the color depth.

Serenatous · 05-06-2008, 03:53 PM

I am running vista 64 which seemed to be running well, except my color depth is still 32, is there any way i can change that to a 64 ?
Cuz i would like the better resolution, and graphic to well mostly luxury and leisure for games and other purposes.

I know its supposed to be internal and you only actually see 24 bit, but arent i supposed to see it as 64 or what ?

how am i supposed to know if its working on 32 or 64 ?

I some how would rather run it at 64 due to the better rendering...

Hello again,
The 32 bit color depth is really related to the Video card not the processor or operating system. Even though you now are using 64 bit Vista, the color depth is as high as it can go on these system as far as I know.
