runtime error 1514 24 bit depth not supported. Select either 16 or 32 bit mode at line 0".
This comes up on running the exe programme on a different computer to the one the prog is compiled on.
Even with a simple 'load bitmap' (see code attached). The bmp is a simple 8/256 one.
Can anyone tell me why??

Not all cards support 24-bit mode, so switch to 32.

Thanks Phaelax, BUT how do I do that? Is there a command on DBPro?
The bitmap is 8/256 colours, not 24 bit at all. It was attached to my original message (it downloaded back to me OK).
Sorry you did not get the source code - it is simply "load bitmap "test.bmp":suspend for key".

i think the command you are looking for to set the bit depth is:
set display mode screenSizeX, screenSizeY, bitDepth

I'm not sure if this is the answer, but check the display settings in conrol panel of your operating system.

You caould also try



I think that's it, anyway.

I don't think it has anything to do with the bitmap, just your display mode.

Here, the command is

setdisplaymode 1024,768,32

that is just an example. 1024x768 res and 32-bit.
