I encountered this after buying a reliable-source (local library) used computer and installing a 98 operating system. Initially the CD audio also wasn't properly enabled, but I found a driver on one of the three CDs available to me (incl. admin-type programs). Is an appropriate driver to fix the 16-color problem on any of these MS disks? Also (related?) when I run movie-type files, they're pretty messed-up looking and don't play audio...
