This topic is for my (or other's) problems with corrupted graphics in X-Com. Any help would be appreciated! For background, go to: http://www.abandonia.com/forum/index.php?s...145&st=2940
(Original Problem)

This is my favorite game of all time; can someone help me?
I used to be able to play, it, I believe the version from here, but then my computer crashed and I had to format my drive. Now I can't get the graphics to work properly, the colors get all screwed up, for example on the opening screen the "Microprose" letters are light blue instead of red. Also, the screen resolution is too big, it goes off the screen. I am using the Abandonia version, running it from the UFO with the sun logo. I have tried all the compatiability options, including 256 colors and 640x420 resolution. This is really frustrating as the busted graphics make it difficult to see bordering on impossible. Thanks!
PS. I am using a Intel 84845G/GL/GE/PE/GV graphics card.
PPS. Great game, otherwise.

EDIT: I can't believe I forgot this the first time- I have WinXP Home.
