My screen has 16 colours (4bpp). I would like to change it to 256 colours.

The 'Master Help Index' tells me to use the  'System Setup' -> 'System'
software (What are those icons in the 'System Setup' window called?). It
tells me that I should see a 'Screen' tag. I do not see a 'Screen' tag.

How do I conjure this Screen tag?
