Photoshop CS

I've been trying to save pics in photoshop to 4bit bmp, but it dosen't give me the option to do so?
I indexed the pic & all that which brings up 16 colors but I still can't save it to 4bit bmp? Any suggestions on how to work around this?

Thank you for your input. Yes, it's a bootskin and when I tried to save it threw the same steps as you, all other options are grayed out except for 8-bit?

For instance, just now I did:
- Image > Mode > Indexed Color
- Typed in 16 in the "Colors" box
- File > Save as
- Choose BMP format
- Clicked the 4-bit radio box
and it saved as a 4-bit image. If this is for a bootscreen, I don't know if this method will work. I've read that even though it's a 4-bit image, boots are rather picky about what image they will accept. Don't quote me on that though, since I don't do boots.
