Do you have the latest Beta Update (3.6.31.0) installed?

do you have any bad programs installed? Is your game updated to 3.6.31.0? Post palette.log here.

Press Shift+Pause? I think that was the command for returning the color palette.

try this (myfiles.my1.ru/wa/fixes/palettefix31.reg) tweak and let know if it helped.
are you using compatibility options or auto-changing desktop wallpapers, btw? if so, disable them.

I'm not using said options^
and the fix did sadly not work

also, like I said, I tried every method in the FAQ - shift + pause etc - and NONE of them worked - or did anything

sorry for doubleposting,
but strangely the colors are working when im watching a replay

EDIT:
okay, sorry again, but i got that wrong
it seems i forgot that i clicked around in the advanced options a bit and disabled tripple buffering sometime
when its disabled, the colors INGAME are fine, though the game runs extremely sluggish and the frontend is still messed up
