It will take like 40 minutes of your time to test report & put it back, if your worried about PBEMs perhaps Fred could chip in & say its fine wont effect them because your putting the old exec back

All you have to do is add a letter to your original exec X for instance do the the test then remove the X & the games back to normal.

Without people with Win7 testing & reporting they cant see what the problems are its just 2 guys maintaining a game not a software house they need people to test it on a few computers then they can figure out what if anything still needs fixing.

Simple thing is they either dont fix it or fix it in the next patch & wait for people to say the game wont run & then report it to fix it.

Just report your findings here no need to go to shrapnel I can mail Don the results.

Just give your operating system & say if it worked or not.
If not include any error message & a couple of lines to say what happened.

Cheers

I've used this fix for a while now, I think I got it from Shrapnel forums about 6 months ago, it fixes the color problem so you can run it in full screen mode, however it seems to be kind of unstable I've experienced frequent freezes and have had to power off my machine to correct the problem, also once you run the program using this fix you cannot Alt + Esc back to your desktop mid-game it crashes your system and a reboot is required again, these are the only two problems that I have experienced so far and I've been using it for a while. It also works for WinWW2 you just have to edit the cmd file with note pad, where it reads WinSPMBT.exe just replace that with WinWW2.exe
