I don't beleive you.

Just to check, I tried the following cards in my Windows box....

Tseng Labs ET4000 ISA
Trident TVGA ISA
S3 Trio32 1MB
S3 Trio64 2MB
S3 Virge/dx
Diamond Stealth II

And switched all cards between 8 and 256 colours (the highest colour
depth common to all cards) and all worked fine.

Mabey I have the rare combo of old cards that all can do it, I don't
know.
