Poole -- t-stephp@microsoft.UUCP -- Mac II Fanatic -- Stephen, all you needed to do to solve the problem of the lack of color was to open the control panel, and select the monitors CDEV and switch from B&W to color, or drop from 16 or 256 to 2 colors and switch back and the problem would have been gone. Sometimes you may notice that the Mac icon in the welcome to Macintosh is not in color either, this fixes that also. line fodder -- Norm Goodger SysOp - MacInfo BBS @415-795-8862 3Com Corp.
