Color bit depth changes after sleep on Windows 7

As title, power on and the laptop is full 8 bit colour (24 bit) and is set to 32 bit in nvidia control panel

However when I wake from sleep, the colour depth is close to 6 bit (64 shades instead of 256) but the settings are still 32-bit

This issue didnt occur in Windows 10 and has never occured the last time the machine ran 7

Side note is a 2008 HP laptop and doesnt handle 10 as well as I had hoped

driver version 331.82

Had the same issue with the latest for my GPU (342.01) with the same problem (Reverted back because older driver performs better, the new one is just plain)

Thoughts?
