My computer hates me – Literotica Discussion Board

Help I just installed an updated (supposedly) video driver, and now I’m stuck in 4 bit mode rather than 16 bit with no option to get the 256 colors or make the font smaller Any ideas? Here are parts of the DXDIAG if that helps. The current mode under Display Memory has changed also:

This is the DXDIAG after I installed the new driver:
