    Starcraft I on Windows 7

    I'm having problems running Starcraft I on Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
    After I run it, the parts of the screen is pixelated and colors distorted. Starcraft I is an old game (like 1998). I already tried compatibility mode with Windows XP (s2 and s3). Anyone know what to do? Thanks!

    Right click on desktop > Screen Resolution > Advanced Settings > Keep Advanced Settings screen up and run Starcraft. I had the same problem when running Fallout 1 & 2, try that. If that doesn't work I would run in compatibility mode for 98 and run the .exe as administrator.

    -edit-

    Just tested the first method (I use Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit) and it worked fine for me, however by default the .exe was running in compatibility for Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5).
