My new beta of Windows Vista runs great so far. My files are all opening really fast, internet works great, but there's a slight problem: my screen's running at 640x480 and 4-bit color. I know my 2 year old laptop isn't powerful enough to run the full Aero experience, but I think this might be a little rediculous. How do I make this uncrappy?

Can't get out of safe mode

I'm using an ATI Radeon 320m, and the drivers should be up-to-date, though I think how I installed Vista might have done something about that. I'll try reinstalling after my backup file is done being created. Thanks for the help, though.
