I have a Voodoo video card and DirectX 8.1, but the graphics look poor. Why?
Most Voodoo cards can’t support large textures or textures with translucent pixels, so graphics quality will be lower. But framerates should be better. You can still use SDL mode if you prefer, by using the “/sdl” command line option. This keeps the graphics at full quality, but because it’s software based, it’s not as fast as DirectX mode. The program crashes at startup / No songs found / Controls are screwed up Try deleting ‘dwi2.rec’, ‘dwi2.sng’, ‘dwi2.cfg’, and ‘dwi2.inp’. These files may be corrupted or out-of-date. There may be a problem with DWI – but it helps to try this step first. There are no sound effects or announcer comments, just music during gameplay and the song-select screen. or The program won’t run, I get a message box saying “FREEIMAGE.DLL” or “BASS.DLL” is not found. You’ve not extracted the archive properly. You should have files in \Skins\Default, including ‘dwi2-skin.cfg’. Some files (particularly DLL files) may be hidden in some un-zipping programs if you have
