Any fool can use a computer. Many do. 
Well, it won't use the 32bit colours by default, you have to add some parameters to the program for it to be activated. You've got two options: using a command prompt or creating a shortcut on your desktop (or somewhere else) and then modify the shortcut.

Shortcut method:
- Create a shortcut to that new 32bit Dink.exe file
- Right click, then Properties
- Modify the Target path to make it look like:

"C:\Program Files\Dink Smallwood\dink_32bit.exe" -game outlndr -truecolor -dinkpal

Here, the path is where you've got it installed, outlndr is the name of the D-Mod directory and the two parameters -truecolor and -dinkpal will activate the 32bit features to play the D-Mod normally.

Command Prompt method:

- Start
- Run
- Enter:

"C:\Program Files\Dink Smallwood\dink_32bit.exe" -game outlndr -truecolor -dinkpal

Here, the path is where you've got it installed, outlndr is the name of the D-Mod directory and the two parameters -truecolor and -dinkpal will activate the 32bit features to play the D-Mod normally.
