Running Warcraft immediately closes it and turns my screen grayish white.

I recently formatted my computer and now attempting to run Warcraft closes it and renders my screen grayish white until I restart computer. I have DirectX and visual C++ installed, so I'm confused what's happening atm.

Did you update the drivers of your graphics card?

Did you update the drivers of your graphics card?

Yeah. Updating my drivers is the first thing I do every time I format. Outdated drivers is out of the picture for now.

You will need to list your system specifications. Such as CPU, Memory, GPU, OS, Display etc.

Leaving your desktop tinted would point towards it loading gamma LUTs that do not get restored before the application closes. If this is the case one should be able to fix it by loading a custom colour profile just to unload it and restore to default as this forces the OS to reload the gamma LUTs.

Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.00GHz 3.01 GHz
RAM: 2 GB
GPU: Nvidia GeForce 9500 GT
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate

Not sure what a display is, so I'll take it that you want the desktop : ACPI x86-based PC
