Graphics Glitch


I bought Starcraft today. I'm having fun with the game so far, but occasionally (mostly during cinematics) the game's colors go haywire. The seem to invert themselves. Does anyone else have this problem? Anyone know how to stop it? If it helps, I'm playing on a Windows 7.

Here's looking at you, kid.

I am no expert but it sounds like your video card is the issue. Try updating drivers and such.

Bring this question to the Blizzard website/tech support forums - you will definitley find your answers there... eventually.

this is a common error with a few old games running on vista/win7 and can be removed by doing the following:
open process mangager(ctrl+alt+del) and kill the explorer.exe process.
then start starcraft.exe as a new task, and voila - all the colors are they whey they should be. After you quit starcraft, simply start explorer.exe as a new task

I believe I have a better solution for these color problems. Instead of killing explorer, just disable the Aero theme.
Or better yet right click on the game's shortcut, pick properties, go to Compatibility and tick 'Disable desktop composition'. This will automatically disable Aero whenever the game is started.
