You could be a bit more precise...what exactly looks "coarse"? Are you 
getting jagged edges? Or a grainy appearance on flat-colored areas? Odd 
color shading?

If it's jagged edges, try using higher quality antialiasing settings. A 
grainy appearance could be caused by many things...jitter in area 
lights, antialiasing, method 1 media, crand, or just certain textures. 
Odd artifacts in what should be a smooth color blend...well, that's most 
likely just a result of the limited precision of computer displays. In 
24 bit mode, they will be invisible most of the time, in 16 bit mode 
they can be very visible and distracting.
