File Description
This should work perfectly for anybody having the screwed up colors problem in Windows 7 or Vista. The problem causer is the taskbar. In Windows 7 it is forced to be on top with no option to turn it off so it should happen much more often.

This fix kills the taskbar (and explorer) and then relaunches and resumes explorer once you exit the game. If you need to alt-tab to inject hacks i recommend loading something like SE-Explorer first (if you use SE-Explorer, all you should need is the 'SE-Explorer.exe').

I have included a batch script and an EXE for both versions. The EXE should work smoother but the batch script can be edited to work with other games.

Guys, opening Screen Resolution's window while SC is open completely fix the bug. You do not need this program. :O

It won't fix the problem with Windows XP, simply alt-tab back out and go back in and it's likely to fix it, this is for Vista/Win7, as the Aerobar is constantly trying to take a little bit of control, and causes the screen to change odd colors, all this does it end the explorer process when you run it, before it runs SC, and automatically starts it up again when you're finished.

I'm not sure I understand very well what you've said.
I use XP and the problem happens to me some times when I alt-tab... Is this for me? (You talk about 7 and Vista only).
Smells the 5 stars.
