Er, in exactly what way?

It's probably worth realising that if the whole idea of cell
background colouring had failed, someone would have noticed. So,
whatever problem you are finding, it is unlikely to be solved
simply
by using another version of the application itself.
I agree that it is probably a Win7/Java/LO-configuration problem
rather than a LO bug.

It very probably is.

I think you may have to *deselect* them.

This is an important clue, of course - so I wonder why you kept it
a
secret in your original query.
>But why not on my screen?
I'm guessing here, and I don't have the set-up to test my
suggestions. Operating systems can have a "high contrast" setting;
your Windows does, and you can find it in Control Panel. The idea
of
these is that you can modify the appearance of your work *on your
display* to make it easier to work, whilst preserving the final
appearance of your document when it is printed or whatever. This
is
not so different from the row number, column letters, and indeed
the
grid - all of which appear in the screen display but not (at least
by
default) in the real document. As you say, these screen
readability
changes do not show up in Page Preview - which instead
demonstrates
the true appearance of your document.
The exact screen appearance as you work depends on a combination
of
the high-contrast settings in Windows and your choices in
LibreOffice
at Tools | Options... | LibreOffice | Accessibility. You may want
to
experiment with these to see what you prefer.
Can you give me any advice which WIN7/LO settings/parameters I have
to change
Alternatively, since you now admit that your actual document
behaves
as you want, you may choose to do nothing.
I trust this helps.
