I don't know of it will help but try reinstalling the driver of you vid card and your monitor.

Yeah, reinstall your Video Card driver.

And you monitor if its not P&P

LOL that is the funniest, 4bit colour!

Have you Overclocked your GFX?

hmmm the problem's i have...if ur bored try 4 bit colour 4 a laf

For the drivers remove the vidcard with device manager and let windows reboot so that it will find new hardware and then install the new drivers.

About the folders, what's wrong with those beautiful win98 folders , You can change them back to the original icons with the help of the program E-icons. You can find E-icons here.

www.nvidia.com for the latest driver for your Geforce2 MX btw
