I was playing both games successfully for months, no problems. I
upgraded to XP Pro SP2 and made some other changes about the same
time. I have DirectX 9.0c installed. I have both games still
working on another partion so I'm sure the hardware still
functions. So far I haven't been able to see what is different.
I've uninstalled and reinstalled video and monitor drivers. One
other symptom that I haven't been able to nail down is that the
icons on my desktop that had transarent backrounds now have a
blue backround.
Any ideas?
