Windows 3.x

1. Make a copy of the System.ini file, located in your Windows directory. For more information about how to accomplish this task in Windows, see your Windows printed documentation or online help.
2. Run Windows Setup, located in the Main group, and make a note of which video driver appears on the Display line.
3. On the Options menu, click Change System Settings. There should be a few drivers listed whose names are similar to the one you just made a note of. Select the driver that specifies 256 colors. Click OK.
