Hey,
I just figured that some of you guys out there uses Windows 7, so heres the color fix for Starcraft. Its just a simple program. So here you go.
MOD EDIT: Put that in color.cmd in your Starcraft directory. Use it to run Starcraft.
@ECHO OFF
taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe > NUL
StarCraft.exe
choice /N /T 2 /C 7 /D 7 > NUL
start /B explorer.exe
Edit: I dont know if it "works" perfectly, since im on ubuntu. But its better than nothing i guess. Enjoy <3
edit: i got this source from gosugamers.net , should have added that first sry.

Files selected for scanning: C\LarJarsE\desktop\SC_ColorFix_v1.1.rar;
No infection was found during this scan.
I haven't tried it, but its clean with the most updated AVG anti.
EDIT: It also supports Windows VISTALast edit: 2010-01-19 09:05:02 |

| Btw what also works is if you open your screen resolution screen and leave it open while playing the game. Just right click anywhere on the desktop and choose screen resolution. |

Also, right click your starcraft exe, select properties, and check all the little boxes. Do not select compatibility mode though. After doing this I haven't had any problems. If you want to run in a window though you have to uncheck all the boxes.

nice was looking for a way to fix the colours.
on a side note: anyone else than me having a problem with Win7 and BW freezing completely (sound still works, but you aren't allowed to do anything so a reboot is in order)? |

This happened to me. I fixed it by playing around with the compatibility settings (like the poster above mentioned). |

Do not link to a website based around making starcraft hacks.
On another note, the same solution to this problem was posted before in a couple of previous threads. |

| I noticed the lockups only occur when I'm using *any* media player while playing (guessing it's a sound conflict). Window mode seemed to fix it. But yeah windowed (even maximized) kinda sucks to play in. |

Nigol you have been warned for supporting hacks / hackers before as far as I know. And banned for being a shitty poster. Don't link to gamethreads from here please.
Here is the program, no magic happening, just restarts explorer:
@ECHO OFF
taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe > NUL
StarCraft.exe
choice /N /T 2 /C 7 /D 7 > NUL
start /B explorer.exe
Doesn't work with Iccup and probably messes up your system a bit (although I don't use Windows7 so I can't confirm this). But hey, I guess most users of this fix will use the conveniently included Oblivion launcher plugin anyway. Last edit: 2010-01-20 00:05:28 |

I saw this thread when it was made, and it was the first time I was able to see the SC colors again. Couldn't say thanks coz of the ban, so here it is now.
None of the cheap tricks worked for me (opening screen resolution page?? nigga plz)
So thank you for this one. |

Opening the screen resolution worked excellent for me; Maybe it doesn't for you. |
