switch to 16 colors first... then go back into display, if your video card will handle it then it should give you the option to go bigger. X

1- most of monitors have a setting or menu button on them where you can change contrast, colour density or any other settings.\n\n2- some graphic cards has the setting panel as well. in order to find out if your graphic card has this function, go to control panel, double click on Display, click on setting tab, click on advance button. you will see a new window with some tabs, one of them should be your graphic card, for example my graphic card is Intel Extreme, so I have a tab with Intel Extreme name. when you click on it, you will have a panel to control contrast of your monitor.

Hi,\n\nIf you don't see 32bit nor 16bit color.\nThan I recommend you to reinstall your video card driver, this will fix your problem.

You can do this with a search.\n\nWhen you specify the search parameters, choose Format and tell it to search for the color you want to change.\n\nWhen you specify the change to parameters, similarly tell it to change to the color you want.

I think you will need to change your Windows theme to change what you are looking for.  I run the same theme as well ansd all my bars are silver as I run the silver theme for XP.  Change your theme and it will clear the blue bars from your FF install.

The problem may lie in your video card settings.  \n(Windows) Right click on the desktop (anywhere), a dialogue box will pop up, scroll down to and click 'properties' > then click 'Settings' tab > then click 'Advanced' button > and depending on your video card manufacturer (ATI is mine) there should be a setting (or tab) for 'color'    [based on wide varieties of video cards, I can't get too specific here, but look for someplace to adjust color, possibly Gamma settings as well...\n\nOR...]   \n\nFind out who makes your video card (START > CONTROL PANEL > SYSTEM > HARDWARE (tab) > DEVICE MANAGER > and click the "+" sign next to "display adapters"  -  it should say something like "ATI (blah, blah); or nVidia (blah, blah)"  [write the whole device name down just in case] )and then get out of all that back to the desktop, click START > PROGRAMS (or all programs) and find a program in that list with the same name (ie ATI, Nvidia, etc.) and click it - there may be a program installed by them to help make managing display related stuff easier.\n\nhope this helps!!

Its hard to tell from your description exactly what the problem is but I'm going to guess it's a problem with the resolution.\n\nright click the desktop and choose properties\n\ngo to the settings tab\n\nMake sure that the resolution scroll bar or drop down menu is at least 1024x768 or greater. (The numbers might be slightly different if you have a widescreen laptop, but generally higher is better).\n\nAlso on that same tab make sure your color settings are set to their highest setting. Usually 24 or 32bit.\n\nHit Ok, the screen may blank out for a second but it should come right back.\n\nHopefully this will fix it.

you can put in the RGB numbers.\n\nI often find the color I want and use the "turkey baster" tool...

WinXP?\n\nDesktop-->Appearance--> "try using silver here" but I know there is a way to customize the color scheme around here\n\nalso go to\nControl Panel-->Display-->Settings-->Advanced Button-->Color Management: From here you can choose a color profile for your comp. You can make them too make a grayscale.

Leave the resolution where it is and look at the appearance tab in display properties.....look for icon in the list and change its size. Lots of other settings here too! Arrange yer brains out!

disconect the monitor cable from the video card and look at the pins....make sure one didn't get bent. it's way easy to bend one and it will usually throw off the color or brighrness. if thats ok, try adjusting the brightness and contrast on the monitor.

ok try this \ngo onto desktop and click on the right mouse button select properties\nthen click the settings tab\nunder display your monitor should be listed if it isnt then disconnect the monitor and reconnect if it is already on there the you will need to check on the same tab that your screen resolution is correct usually 1280 by 1024 pixels and color quality is 32 bit\n\nadjust accordingly and apply

Right click on any blank space on your desktop.  Go to "properties" and choose either "background" or "appearance".  Will show you how to change the background and font color.\n\nGood Luck

Assuming you're using Windows XP:\nstart ----> Control Panel ----> Appearance and Themes ----> Display (or any other option at this stage) -----> Appearance.\n\nThere you can start to play with the colors, the fonts size, the styling.\n\nIf you feel less adventurous, choose "themes" instead of "appearance", every theme has its own color and style.\n\nOh, and congrats for your new computer!

http://www.dr-hoiby.com/TrayIconIn256Color/index.php\n\nI dont know if you should trust the link above. Another guy said using the activx component at the page fixed his tray icon problem. i would try to do it manually though with a hex editor. the fix however is only to make the icons 256 colours, whichi isn't high colour.\n\nI am not sure this is what you are looking for, but i am assuming your desktop enviroment is already running in 16 or 32 bit color.

There may be something wrong with the monitor if that doesn't work. One other option you may have. Look on the monitor itself.  There should be some buttons on it. When you play with those it should take you into a menu that will allow you to adjust the colors. I have had monitors that seem like they are going out but have been able to restore the colors enough to make me happy by just adjusting the hues on the monitor.
