It sounds like your on-board graphics chip, which are always underpowered
but cheap, does not have the capability of running that resolution at that
color depth.  You would need to get an AGP video card for your system and
give up the weak on-board graphics.  IF your motherboard even HAS an AGP
slot. Better check first.
