Dunno if this was asked before, but I searched and found nothing.
I am having issues with games that seem to be DirectDraw based. There are two main things I noticed:
Performance - Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive - the game works awfully slow. My machine may not be the best there is, its a Q6600 with GTS 450, but c'mon, this is an old game.
Fonts - I really wanted to play Gangsters and Atlantis 3, but the fonts are not rendered for some reason. I tried comparing the fonts in windows 7 (luckily saved the old windows 7 dir) but no fonts seem to be missing. I've read that they scrapped Cleartype, but surely those games don't use it?
Tried all the compatibility settings. Any ideas?
