I tried using dgVoodoo v2.55.3 as well as the WIP50 build but in both cases, the installer crashed on start. Here is the debug output from DebugView++ (log output was pretty much identical for both dgVoodoo versions)

For bonus points, does anyone know if it is possible to make the installer run in Windowed mode by hex-editing it's EXE?
