After reading through the threads and posts here (many thanks for the helpful info) I was able to install from my original CD's to a Windows 10 machine, dropped a copy of the wrapper DLL into the DW folder and the game runs.
Sweet!!
But now I'm being picky and want to run it in a window instead of full screen. I know right?!
I edited the compatibility properties of the shortcut:
- Run in Windows Vista SP 2 (tried Win 8 too)
- 16-bit color mode
- Disable scaling on high DPI
- Run as Admin
And then changed the ModeID and RunInWindow settings in the INI but after starting the game I get the blacked out window and two error messages:
- Failed to initialize the graphics display
- Context Create Error: -2147467259
Looking in the wrapper.log file I see:
029746f8:emu:
irect3DDevice8Emu::initialize windowed mode is currently not supported
Is there anyone that is able to run DW on a Windows 10 machine in window mode?
