There is an option in the Nvidia control panel to change colour depth but there is only one option available.
Anyway the main thing is that the game now runs in the max resolution available in the options menu.
By the way I don't suppose there is a hack to get an even higher resolution as my graphics card can do much higher resolutions than the ones that the game is allowing?

Windows 10 does not support 16 bit color mode. If you want to run in a window, you need to use a wrapper program, one of which is called voodoo-something and the other is DxWnd, which I use. The game is run in full screen mode but these wrappers then put it in a window.
Dangerous Waters won't run at a resolution higher than what your monitor supports. I used to try doing 1600x1200 back when 1080p was my highest possible resolution and Dangerous Waters did not like it. ModeID has 5 options: 0 (640x480), 1 (800x600), 2 (1024x768), 3 (1280x1024), and 4 (1600x1200).
