Open notepad and paste the following thing without the quotation marks.
"Taskkill /F /IM Explorer.exe
empires2.exe
Start explorer.exe"

Save it as a batch file and call it whatever you want. I have it saved as "empires2 (Color Fix).bat"
When you open the game the bug will be fixed by now and it will look the way it should
