Issues fixed

Poor Performance

Newer versions of Windows have minimal support for games that use DirectDraw. Aqrit's ddwrapper can make the game run better.
Use ddwrapper[citation needed]
  1. Download ddwrapper from the creator's site.
  2. Place the downloaded ddraw.dll and aqrit.cfg file into <path-to-game>.
  3. Change these lines in the aqrit.cfg file to "1": ForceDirectDrawEmulation = 1 and NoVideoMemory = 1
  4. Save the file and run the game.

Issues unresolved

Games run in upper left corner of screen
