Not "what CPU chip is in your system" but what kind of system are you running on? Do any programs on your system display colors? Does your Pentium reside in an embedded system that has no display? A black and white only palm computer? A Hercules BW graphic card in a DOS or Windows 3.1 system? The latest 24 bit color card with monitor to match? In the latter case, are you running Linux, Windows, DOS, OS/2 or what? Have you told the operating system your display preferences? Are you trying to make existing programs go from BW to color, or do you plan to write new programs and want them to be in color? Are you doing text, static images from graphic files, or do you want moving colored graphic images?
