16 Bit Colors

Question

Hi, is it possible to change the Display settings to 16-Bit, at all?

At least it isn't chouse able in my installation, but some old apps, mostly games, need 16 Bit color, and refuse to run with 32-Bit color.

Answer 1

Change the reduce color mode setting for the executable file in the compatibility tab of the file's property page in Windows Explorer.

You can try the compatibility mode and change the color mode in there.
