In your display settings, is there an option for anything higher than 32-bit color? From what I read on the internet, to run 48 bit color you need win7, a graphics card that supports it (1.3hdmi) and a monitor that supports it. So three things. If you don't have any one of these, then win 7 supposedly won't have that option displayed in your display settings.
Speculating, if the bit settings in your config.ini exceed your hardware/software capability, like other poster said, it could be reverting to something less when the game runs (e.g., 16 bit color) That would use less data, less memory required and maybe less processing. So that might give you better fps/less stutters. You could try this. Go to your windows display settings and set it for 16 bit, then run the game and see what happens to fps and stutters and if the game looks totally different or just slightly different. Also, check to see if anything higher than 32 bit is available to you.
