I'm trying to get WWTBAM to run on my NT4 Laptop so I can run the game at remote locations when "on the road" working. Unfortunately even after several different installs/uninstalls/shutdowns I still get the same warning message "The procedure entry point DirectDrawCreateEx could not be located in the dynamic link library DDRAW.dll" and the game will not start. It does work fine on my home computer (W98). Any ideas how I can fool the laptop or are there workarounds?

There is no DX7 for NT4. I do not have the game so I am not sure if it uses D3D or not. Considering how new it is it probably does. If not then Connectix Virtual PC or Vmware with DX7/DX8 installed on a Windows 2000 guest MIGHT enable it to work but it's HIGHLY doubtful.
I'd just stick 2000 on your laptop and it should work fin.
