No, I don't. I'd say that even with a technically 15 bpp screen depth
video memory organization a driver would still say "16" in the user
visible settings to avoid a possible user confusion, but report "15"
on the API level.

A google search "15 bpp screen depth site:microsoft.com" finds some info
about this.
