The overlay driver doesn't work on every graphic card and you can't use it
with a different color depth from the desktop one.
GDI would be a good candidate but it's very slow.
So I suggest to pick the windowed driver: it should be supported on more
graphic cards than the overlay one and it can do color conversion from 8bpp
to every other depth. If it fails, you revert to the fullscreen driver.
