problem with Ubik

Post by ugopaliotto »

I am not able to play properly Ubik nor on my PC with Windows 98SE neither with my older PC with Windows 95. On the first PC (Athlon 500 Mhz, GeForce 4MX, SBlaster 128, DirectX 9c)i, I can install this game, but when it starts the screen remains black.
On the second PC (Pentium 200, Matrox Millenium, SBlaster 16, DirectX6), the game starts, but the screen flickers.
I can't neither play Ubik in a DOS environment because it's a win32 application.
What could I do? If you have some ideas, please, answer!

Try this - disabling Direct Draw in DX Diag tab. Click Start, Run and type "dxdiag". Having DXdiag opened, select the Display tab and click on Disable Direct Draw Acceleration.
