Changing color depth and screen resolution Color depth and screen resolution are two of the most basic monitor settings you may need to change to suit your needs. Color depth is the number of colors your computer uses to display images on your monitor. Most images look best displayed with the maximum number of colors available. If the color in your images seems "false" or "jumpy," especially after you have played a game or run a video-intensive program, check the color depth setting and return it to the highest color setting, if necessary. Screen resolution is the number of pixels (individual colored dots) your computer uses to display images on your monitor. The higher the resolution, the more information and screen components (such as icons and menu bars) can be displayed on the monitor. Help For more information about adjusting the screen, click Start, then click Help and Support. Type adjusting monitor settings in the Search Help box, then press ENTER. 7
