So last night, I decided to go and download ED, because I had never played it before (for some reason). Anyways, I loaded the game, and watched the beautiful intro. When I started playing though, I noticed something:
Yes, it seemed like the characters were pasting themselves to the background! How strange. It did make the game unplayable, so I went to the downloads section. I try a demo, and the same thing happens:
Kinda fustrated, I load up a few other games (mine included) and see that they do not have the same problem, except for one. This one, fortunatly, only the background was pasted.
Then I recall a game a few years back did the exact same thing, so I went and found it, and loaded it up. Lo and behold:
So I come here, with my 5 gifs, and I ask, what is going on? They work fine on every other computer that I tried them on (95,2000,XP), why is it mine (XP) that they all decide to be glitchy?

Of Cncs232.dll, right? I got the most updated version of it, and I placed it in my Windows foler, System and System32 folders, and in the game directory folders. Still no luck, unless your talking about some other DLL.

I seriously think it's a dll thing. If not it could be directdraw... or your video card. But it's probably the dll.

Actually, after reading about that direct draw, I went and turned off my hardware acceleration for my graphics card, and everything worked fine. Then I googled my graphics card, and got an updated driver. Now everything works fine with hardware acceleration.
