Hi Derik,
The other day my son installed some publishing software on my computer
which wanted high color. We changed the video settings to high color and I
figured I'd change them back when I used JFW. Well, they work fine with
JFW so I have left them set to high color. There are no particular drivers
it all depends on your video card. Try it out and see if it works. I'm
using a Matrox Milenium G200 card.
