Is there a command to get ur game in window? Ive seen the command "window on" all over this forum, but wen i try it, it says sum error about it being an unknown command. Im only using DB, not pro or classic. Is it in a later version? Plz help.

I don't believe DX deals with depths lower than 16b.

You should try to see in the examples of DB
and make a checklist first of all avalible video-cards
for Voodoo-1 users, there are always 2 different graphic-cards.
they have to put them on the Primary Device first, before they van activate a window in a DB-Program (but I do not recommend a window program, it can give much trouble.)
