This is a discussion about X-com UFO Defense in the Windows Games category; Any idea on how to get this to work in XP? When i run it, its all smashed into the top third of my monitor, i have tried to force it to run 640/480, and even changed my desktop resolution, but still stays like that.

I had it working fine with 2000, XP doesnt like it.

Turn off all D3D acceleration.
OP
How exactly do I do that? and is it easy to just turn off and back on for other games.
Go to Run under the Start menu, and type "dxdiag". This will bring you to a dialog screen called "Direct X diagnostic tool". Click on the "Display" tab, and click "disable" beside the line of text that says "direct draw acceleration" after that is done, click exit. To re-enable it, simply reverse the process. Hopefully this helps.
