(IIRC, if you use the standard vga driver in Windows I don't think it happens but I'm not 100% positive)and no in almost all cases changing the resolution, playing around with compatibility options, playing around with the ACT do not work. Try using a utility like dxwnd to run the affected game in a window.I initially thought Intel cards were free of this issue and it was only Nvidia cards but a couple of days later I did some more testing with another laptop with an Intel card and the same issue happened.So yes the issue is with Windows 7 and/or possibly a driver issue. Supposedly leaving the Windows resolution screen up before executing the game 'fixes' the issue. If the game has the ability to use another renderer (OGL/D3D) than GDI/DirectDraw then use that3. End the explorer.exe task before executing the game, and then start it on exiting the game.2. With Windows 7 it's almost constant.The issue is these programs are using 8bit color and Windows explorer is corrupting the pallette. This happened on Vista as well but much less often.

64 bit if it matters.i never got past about 4 floors down and since the battle chest came with the OG i figured i'd try again. no xp drivers on the site so i can't go back to my precious and i'm stuck with this farce of an os. laptop is a sony vaio (i know, 400 bucks though), dual core, 4 gigs of ram, crappy intel 4something hd graphics. still get rainbow colors.any of you guys know how to fix this? i guess my last resort is just emulating xp in virtual pc or something. checked around on google and tried running it in compatibility mode, 256 colors, turned off themes and all that.
