Broken Graphics?

Since I installed Windows 7 32-bit on my computer, CoH has been looking a little colourless. What am I doing wrong?

A little too Film Noir for my liking.

Theres some of my specs. Any advice what I can do to return CoH to normal?

I suggest that you post the result of CoH Helper. That will give a better description of your setup.

Oh - and by the way. The section "Technical issues and bugs" is a better place for such requests.

Based on the "since I installed windows 7" line, I feel compelled to ask the following; Have you installed the latest graphics drivers for your card?

Happy to be of assistance! Windows does tend to find and download drivers automatically now-a-days, but it is still limited by what microsoft has in it's databases, so you don't necessarily get the latest and greatest software that the manufacturer has to offer. And it's often limited to bare bones functionality.
