So the TFD version didn't work and then I tried using my originally ra2/yr disks, and the result is what you see below. The menus are all screwed up, the intro movies are all screwed up, and I once managed to hit the right combination of invisible buttons to get ingame, and thats all screwed up. I've exhausted the compatibility options, and I have no idea where to turn now. Normal ra2 works fine, but YR is dead.

You got a Nvidia GeForce GTX465 or 470 or something like that?
If you do, try updating the drivers. That might solve it.

WHAT DID YOU DO?! No, but seriously, what AlexB said. I had this same issue with DoW II and draw errors. Updating my drivers fixed it, though I could have sworn my drivers were already up to date.

YR has always required me to enable compatibility mode (win98) to make it work, while original RA2 works without it. Do you have it on for YR but not for RA2? Can't think of any other reason why one would work and the other wouldn't.

YR requires some VB6 runtime libraries while RA2 doesn't.

Looks like it was the Drivers. I shall not question it.

I had that exact problem, but with TS. Drivers fixed that too.

Hmm had the same issue with one person and no solution came for it regards win7 and the issue stem from the bink video seemingly...works fine for him using win xp.

compatibility was no solution, so drivers update fixed it here?
