Hello
When RC2 version is active than game StarCraft runs in resolution with ONLY 16 colors:

When UM is closed, game runs normally in 256 colors mode.
RC1 has no problem with StarCraft :)

Could be related to the new wallpaper feature, automatically adjust wallpaper.
Please test if it works fine when this feature is disabled: UltraMon menu > Wallpaper > Options, uncheck 'adjust wallpaper when display configuration changes'.
BTW, do you know if a demo is available for this game?

I have been able to reproduce the problem with the demo, but don't know why it happens, maybe it's related to the game using 8-bit (256 color) mode.
Disabling the 'adjust wallpaper' option seems to be the only workaround. To manually adjust the wallpaper after a display configuration change, either click on UltraMon menu > Wallpaper and click OK when asked if you want to adjust the wallpaper, or run UltraMonDesktop.exe with the /refresh command-line argument: C:\Program Files\UltraMon\UltraMonDesktop.exe /refresh
BTW, on my system the game itself looked fine, only the intro screens were displayed incorrectly.
If you see this problem with other games, please let me know.

Thank you for your interest with this problem. I will use Ultramon with "adjust option" disabled.
