I need to run the original game on Windows 10 in order to trace the Direct3D API calls with dgvoodoo 2, but it fails to launch. Have tried different compatibility modes, and whatever I could find on PCGW, but nothing changed.

I can't use the unofficial patches because they could change the tracing results.
