Default Re: Windows 7 *GUARANTEED* fix

Guys I tested Ncrawlers fix extensively on Windows 7, both WinSPWW2 and WinMBT place the Win7fix.cmd file in the game folder(for WinSPWW2 you'll need edit the file Win7fix.cmd and change the .exe from WinMBT.exe to WinSPWW2.exe, make a shortcut to the modified Win7fix.cmd, change the name and icon if you like and that's it) works like a charm. Play in full screen mode, no color palette distortions. I would recommend this be implemented in a future patch.

One small side effect. I have a program that changes the Windows 7 Start button function to mimic Windows XP. Using this file converts it back to the Windows 7 appearance until the PC is re-started (as one would expect when switching the explorer.exe characteristics). It's a small price to pay and unmodified Windows 7 users will never experience it to begin with. Just thought I'd mention it.
