I can't say I've ever heard of something like that, but the first thing I would try is a different video card driver. Try either a newer one, or if you have the newest one, try a previous version. Get these from the VC manufacturer website.

Hey guys, it's been a while since I've posted (I guess that's good because I haven't had any computer trouble), but I need some help now. I'm not sure if this is the right forum category to post in so move me around if need be.

I came across an old copy of Popuous 3 the other day and decided to install it. I don't remember if I've ever ran it on this computer before or not (Windows XP Pro SP 1). My problem is not with installing it--it installs fine. However, moments into gameplay the colors become distorted and take on a rainbow effect. If I alt + tab and then go back into the game, the colors will be normal for a few moments and then get screwed up again.

I've tried running the game in a Windows 95/98 compatibility mode and the problem still persists. Any ideas, anyone?

Thank you!
