Graphical errors in LBA1

[onnet5]

I recently downloaded and installed the Full LBA1 game you have here on the site. It doesn't seem to be an error for anyone else, but I get patches of inverted colours and corrupt graphics in game.

The game runs fine, it just looks odd in patches around the screen.

I am running Windows 7 64 bit, are there any patches for this or am I the only one to experience this?

I'm not sure.  LBA 1 may not be compatible with Windows 7.  I know it works fine on Vista.  LBA 2 will work on Windows 7 however. 

Of course, it could be your graphics card.  Do you get artifacts (patches of inverted colors) when playing other games?  If so, it's your video card.  If not, perhaps the game isn't compatible with Windows 7. 

Keep me updated.

Yes LBA 2 does run fine, I've been playing that. And no it is not the graphics card, I play many games on my PC. So yes, it must be down to Windows 7, kind of a shame as LBA 1 was the one I never got to finish

I'll test LBA 1 for sure this weekend on my Windows 7 setup, and I'll let you know if I can get it to work.

That'd be awesome, thanks.

Good luck

Crap.  I really am sorry, but I have still not tested it on Windows 7.  College keeping me really busy.  Over at the end of the month.  Hopefully I can have something to you by then.

Ok no problem - whenever you find something

I experienced the same thing.  Check this post out.  It includes a patch and some other useful information:
