Now disable DirectDraw acceleration...
1. From the taskbar 'Start' menu, click 'Run...' Type 'dxdiag'. Click 'OK'. (You may get a message about downloading something from Microsoft, especially if you've never run the DirectX Diagnostic. It doesn't matter what you choose for our purposes.)
2. Click on the 'Display' tab. In the 'DirectX Features' section, click on the 'Disable' button next to the "DirectDraw Acceleration: Enabled" wording. A dialog appears asking you to confirm. Click 'OK'.
3. Leave the DirectX Diagnostic Tool running, by way of reminding you to re-enable DirectDraw acceleration when finished playing.
To play, double click the shortcut.
