I know this post is in the past, but as a user who just stumbled upon it, I don't agree with your advice in this case, though in other cases I would. I think I am having the same behavior as the OP where my ComboBox is highlighting with a dark blue using black text on legacy systems (It looks fine in Windows 7). This provides almost unreadable text and a bad user experience.

Plus you didn't answer the question.
