This error may also occur on systems where the current DPI is more than 100%, To workaround without globally changing the DPI back to 100%,
Some Machines may still be limited to 1024x768 with DGVoodoo, you can set the resolution in the registry directly in this case at |
Set the game to run in 16-bit color mode |
