In a nutshell, this probably won't work. I'm guessing you're using the
latest Constructor, and you've downloaded the 3.5 SDK and installed it to
your R5 installation. This will put new components (such as the postlinker)
which can't converse with the older compiler, etc. components in your R5
software. In R5, you only have the abililty to do up to 2-bit grays. To do
4-bit grays and 8-bit color (or anything else that uses the 3.5 SDK) you'll
need to have R6.
