Color-splosion Help!
So I just built myself a new computer (w00t!) and wanted to run CC on it (why wouldn't you). Turns out having a faster processor actually makes the game time quicker. Everything moves a little bit faster (at 2.25GHz I should hope so). Then there's my new NVIDIA GeForce 7900, which seems to be the problem. After running CC like normal for a minute or so, the colors go all wonky. Looks like some sort of corruption to me. Unfortunately, if I try to get a screen shot it shows up with the correct colors (the plot thickens). So to show what I'm talking about, I broke out the camera phone! If you've got any bright ideas about how to remedy this, let me know.

Looks like somehow your game's pallete is switching ingame.
Are you forcing some sort of color mode using your graphics card?

My best guess is that your video card is over heating.
Have a nice day.

This has happened to me before, all I did to fix it was restart CC. You've probably already tried that, though.

alt-tab in and out, or shift between windowed and fullscreen mode. It re-initializes the graphics.

Yeah it does look cool for a while, but then your eyes get real tired of it.
It can't be my card overheating... especially on something that runs entirely on the processor... right?
Yes, when I minimize and go fullscreen/windowed it restores the original colors, but only for another minute or so. Data, any help? You seem to be the one to go to.
