Anyone got it fixed with the latest AMD driver? :-/ Win7 64 bit here..doesn't work atm. :-(

Same

I even made a thread in tech support.

Whoops.

So far nothing has worked I have no clue how the software guru stuff you guys have posted works. I have no idea how to open MCA64 launcher etc.

Hi,

so i got a new R9 270X, updated my drivers to 13.10 and now i have ingame overdose-acid colors and cant play bw.

i thought that after launchers included color fixes, this was a thing of the past. also all color trouble i experienced so far was only b-net related. so it was never mission critical.

i tried to usual color fix solutions:

* disabled aero
* activated all the compatibilities and set to run as WinXP/Win95/98, in starcraft.exe
* tried colorfix in mca64
* killing explorer.exe


So the only solution is to downgrade my drivers? What is the last version that works?

Playing in Windowed mode fixed all my AMD driver issues by its self.


As much as i like the sharpness of the game in window mode. its not really playable for me due to mouse laggyness. or is there something one can do about it?

Do you mean windows power settings? I tried running on high performance and also running starcraft.exe in higher priority.
My mouse still fells sluggish. It does not effect my play too much, I can still select units and give commands accurately, but it feels and also looks like my mouse movement is behind.

It's found in the in-game options menu.

Well you have to have a GPU , you more than likely have an onboard GPU , From Intel.

You can try uninstalling your Intel Driver and reinstalling and see , I just tried with my ATI card and its working prefect.

Confirmed for 13.12, not sure if it still requires the registry fix since I already had it applied, but no other external tools are required to run the game in full screen with proper colors.

I used the the sc1 colorfix_64.reg that the guy out worked for me for like 3 hours. I exited the game & now it keeps telling me the I'm trying to do an illegal instruction. I want to know how I can remove the sc1 colorfix_64.reg from my pc.

The registry file fix download seems to be "banned" by Mediafire. Is it possible to reupload it somewhere else, or make it obtainable on the TeamLiquid Site? I can't play BW with NyanCat graphics. :/
Lurkers or simply Marine Micro?

That's weird, the file uploaded by the OP is public information. Anyways, Blizzard hosts reg files on their server:
64-bit: http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/starcraft/scbw116_x64.reg
32-bit: http://ftp.blizzard.com/pub/starcraft/scbw116_x86.reg

I can't get this working on my machine - I've tried all the suggestions and always get messed up colours (predominantly blue - not like I've seen before when the screen resolution trick worked).

Any suggestions?
