After changing my video to the above I've encountered DB running mad. The 'run' screen blinks chaoticaly-somehow like it was with main menu of Shogo on Geforce 4 mx440 with vsync not disabled manualy. The prob is on this occasion is not solved by vsync disabling in drivers. What I mean...HELP!

Sounds to me like you need to check your video card drivers and double-check that you have the most recent version of Direct-X. I had a similar problem with my video card, such that the NEWEST drivers for do NOT work properly!

I had to go through the effort of collecting older versions of dd300.dll, dd300_32.dll and the card specific VXD and DRV files and then test each combination until I found one that operated. It's quite a hassle let me tell you... but particularly with Classic I'm thinking, the older style Direct-X 8 form of interface has been dropped completely from the Direct-X 9 versions of the manufacturer's drivers, so you have to play "what if?" to get a combination that works.

Good luck with it...

Oh yes!

I also remember a similar problem to this when changing font sizes, specifically when doing a larger game title line and a smaller written by line. The result flashed between the two sizes for the lines in question quite like mad, until I put a sync line between the changes in font size. It might help if you were a little more specific about the nature of the problem...
