Check the desktop colour depth (go to Control Panel -> Display -> Settings), and make sure it''s the same as your application. If it''s different this can cause large slowdown in DirectX applications.
um, if the game sets it to that, then my desktop doesnt need to be at that, cuz the game sets it, and besides, its windowed mode, so it uses whatever color mode is currently available

Um, you just said two completely different things:
1. The game sets the colour mode
2. The game uses whichever colour mode is currently available.

IF THE GAME sets the color mode, we dont need to use the control panel to change it
and in my case, the game does not set the color mode, it uses the one that is already on
