I to am having this issue. I tried running the game in various compatibility modes, but none of these worked.

I don't have this version of the game, but this is a common issue for old games, and sometimes could be solved just by restarting "explorer.exe" after launching the game.

1) Launch the game

2) CTRL+ALT+DEL and select TASK MANAGER

3) find and terminate "explorer.exe"

4) Then from the menu: File -> Execute, write "Explorer.exe" (without quotes) and press OK

5) return to the game and colors should be right

Please report if it work even in this case.

Your solution does work but its very unpleasant option (u will immediately skip character selection,name selection, intro and it start working when u make first move); i wonder if its another easier way to do it .
EDIT: When u Alt+Tab game after u done this it returns to previous bugged state.

Do you guys happen to have automatically switching wallpapers ?

If you do, you should disable that while playing Diablo.

There is a program I asked someone to make especially for that purpose a few years back, which switches wallpaper but automatically stops doing that if specific processes are detected. It's called Spews.

You'll have to add Diablo.exe in the excluded processes.

Edit : actually, I just tested with the GOG version and don't get corrupted display any more even if I allow wallpaper switching while playing the game, so it may be a different issue this time.

I only had wallpaper engine turned on with the animated screen - i closed it but doesnt do anything , still weird graphic issues.

ok, then you can do this:

Create a text file on your desktop and past this text in it (correcting the path of the game):

taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
start /wait C:/"GOG.com"/"Diablo"/"Diablo.exe"
start explorer.exe

then save the file as "Diablo.bat"

now you can launch the game using this

It works, even when i Alt+Tab and go back. I slightly change paths to make it work:

taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
start /wait C:Diablo.exe

start explorer.exe

EDIT: Currently it only works when i put it in dx folder and run diablo.exe in this folder and it runs as gog lan version
