Win2K stuck in 16 colors?

    First off, I'm supremely impressed with the program, but as with all things, there is a catch.

    I'm using 1812.7, and have installed Windows 2000 (not patched). I used the Win2k VM file to get started and the only change I made was to dis-allow the VM access to the ethernet connection (no net connection, no virus problem). I didn't do anything odd to the installation of Win2K either.

    There are no options in Win2k for anything other than 16 color - and I do *not* mean 16 bit color - I mean 16 colors. As well, I seem to be stuck in 640x480.

    I'm running this on a 1.83 Ghz 15" MacBookPro, 512 MB of ram (I know, I know, I should add more).

    Any suggestions?

    Have you installed Parallels Tools via the "VM" menu?

    Thanks Herbo. That would do it.
