Wilson,

Windows 386 comes with two drivers, one that gives you 640 x 480 and
gives you that error, and one that is 640 x 450 that doesn't.
Microsoft blewit.

One solution is Windows Color, it ups the colors to 16 available on
a VGA (instead of 8) and seemed to fix the problem for me.  It's
a replacement device driver for VGA in windows.  You can get it
through most mail order houses for about $25.  Those extra 8 colors
make a world of difference.
