Hex codes in X51v registry edit?

[Clueless Git]

Okay, I have located the specific lines of the registry I wish to edit using my nifty reg edit program.
I have picked out the colors I want to change the start bar, text, etc. to.
I even have both the RGB and the hex codes for said colors.

I go to change them and find that all the codes are in four pairs of two, rather than three as I expected...

Any ideas?

Due to efficiency reason, the value is almost always in 32-bit. In some situations, (for example graphic programs on the desktop), the full 32-bit is used, i.e. R-G-B-alpha. In your case, the alpha value is not used and are merely there as padding. Set the value to 00 (eg. blue would be 00 00 FF 00) and you should be fine.
