Yes. Many video card's will be recognized by Windows XP, and will run corectly without installing drivers. To have optimum performance, always download the latest drive from the manufacturers website. If you don't have the drivers on a CD or on your machine, this works also. I always use the latest driver from the manufacturer.

What are the factors that affect the choice of display resolution and colors of a computer?

Basically it boils down to video card and monitor. Your video card is only capable of certain resolutions and color schemes, and your monito is only capable of displaying certain resolutions and color modes. Your computer and monitor communicate with each other and decide what the various resolutions and color schemes that you will have access to. If you do not see the resolution that you wish to use, the cheap way to attempt to resolve this is to update your video drivers. Otherwise you will need a new monitor.

You haven't reloaded the video card drivers after installing Windows 2000. If your video card drivers weren't included with Windows 2000, you need to load them from the drivers CD that came with your PC or with the video card, if you bought it seperately. Which video card you have installed is something that YOU need to figure out. Once you get the correct drivers loaded, you should then be able to change your colors to 256 or higher.
