Hi all....could someone please explain the difference and how and what it would change or affect, between say,  a screen resolution of 1024x768x16 and 1024x768x32?  There is a whole list to choose from under the hardware tab. What do you guys use and why Undecided Thanks...

the 16 and 32 are the color bits you want to display..

32bit has more colors than 16..

Let's make an example..

(not real)

16bit= red, blue, yellow

32bit= red, blue, yellow, green, purple and other colors..

What i'm trying to say is 32bit had a more variety of colors..

the different screen resolutions the higher it is the more detail per pixel...
