The game is working just fine (as far as "fine" goes for old games in Windows 7), but it has some odd hiccups if I try to raise the resolution.
320x200 works fine (although being god-awful ugly), and so does 640x400, but if I try 800x600 or higher the color palette gets all mixed (everything gets rainbow-colored...).
Anyone knows why this happens specifically at higher resolutions?

I got the same problem (Win7 32bit). It only works with 640x480...

This is sort of covered in the workaround thread but I will repost here.
=====================
Basic runthough of what I did.
Install the game (you may have texture acid trip color problem)
Write a .bat file to end explorer and launch the game(s) You will need one for I76 and Nitro76 put one in each of the games directories. Just make a notepad file paste the following code in and change the extension to XXXX.bat
This is the I76 code.
---------------------------------------------------
taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
start /w i76.exe -glide
pause
start explorer.exe
---------------------------------------------------
This is the Nitro code.
---------------------------------------------------
taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe
start /w nitro.exe -glide
pause
start explorer.exe
---------------------------------------------------
The game should now load with correct colors and be using the -Glide renderer
Download the DGVoodoo program here
http://www.bunnzy.org/files/extras/apps/dgVoodoo1.50Beta2.zip
and extracted it to the I76 AND Nitro directories. It may Overwrite several files. Run DGV, set it all up (choose your Resolution). Clicked OK.
Run the game..
It may have a light blue line around the screen which I can live with..
HOWEVER, all the textures may start going berserk after a minute. On mine explosions turned into giant tires.. My cars tires turned into fire (oh yeah). Brake lights were something wrong and small.
Other then that she looks damn good.

That bat file doesn't really work for me, atleast the part for start i76 that is.
When i click the bat it says it can't find i76.exe (game is installed ofc)
Im using WIn7 Ultimate 64-bit

Did you do this bit? make sure the .bat is in the same directory as i76.exe

Thanks so much Zeos! I really wanted to get this game working again and your tip helped me.
