Try using regedit to change the "BitsPerPixel"="16" value (to 24) under the
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Config\0001\Display\Settings] key. Re-boot. Hopefully your monitor 
will display in 16 bit but the app will "see" 24 bit in the registry. If you have 
problems seeing the screen, boot to safe mode and change it back.
NOTE: I don't have a 98 pc handy, but that 95 registry entry should be close.
