Never give up! Hex edited my file as per http://forum.dark-omen.org/help-section/windows-10-flickering-screen-t1323.0.html
No more flicker, full screen no issues thanks everyone on here! for the Great advice
---------------------
gave up again game plasy fine but flickers/double images I'm using my own exe with your other files and the changes below. Guess I need to find a british game
-------------
Ok got it going again, removed the run in 640x480, removed run as admin, and compatibility mode from XP to win7. works consistently now. Not sure I can alt-tab yet and it flickers but I'm getting somewhere and I can play.
640x480 mode is crashing because the Gefoce overlay thing which I disabled now. I guess the alt-tab is crashing it and the fix is not working but I just won't alt tab.
--------
re-edit a poop only worked once shouldn't of closed it to come post here
---------------
Holly heck I just fixed it by using a mix of my original install files and part of yours. I'm using my own exe but your mod pack... crazy.
---------------------
Is there a way to make other CD versions work? I have a French Canadian CD and I've tried everyting. Is there a place to buy a UK cd?
I got to a point where I either get that error (using the mod pack) or I get a black screen, some audio and the game minimizes. Maximizing it yields a bit more audio and another minimize. CPU usage by the exe is about 40% so its doing "something "
