Hey everyone...
A few days ago I decided to take the risk of installing Windows 7 on a crappy laptop (HP Pavilion DV1331se). I was surprised with how well it all went. Installation took about 30 mins, drivers all worked perfectly (I installed the XP drivers running them in compatibility mode with XP SP3). All went incredibly well. Its fast (even faster than XP, I must say, at least when it comes to booting).
Yesterday I installed Starcraft (old but awesome game). When I ran the game, I noticed the colors looked a little funky. My guess was the drivers were the wrong ones and I should use the Vista ones instead, but no luck, didn't fix the problem. I have tested a bunch of drivers and I am beginning to think there is no solution but I don't wanna lose hope. This is by far the best Windows I've ever used, wouldn't wanna have to get rid of it.
Here's a screenshot of how the game looks:
What surprises me is nothing else looks this bad, just games so... How can I fix this? Anyone had this problem?
