Has anyone tried running in a window? Does Windows 10 support 16-bit color?

nope, same as 8.1 - what isn't courious, cause the own technique from dw using the buffer is a very incompatible thing for modern systems.

Glad to see I'm not the only one.

DW worked fine on Windows 8.1, I also have the same issue, black screen, mouse pointer and music but no graphics.

I get the same thing with Medieval II Total War.

So I think Windows 10 fubared a few things for legacy games.
