# Re-insert the SoftGPU CD if you removed it and reinstall SoftGPU. Agree when it asks to reboot
# You should now be able to use 32-bit color and higher resolutions
 
== Problems in some 2D games ==
 
If you have installed SoftGPU with Wine <= DX7 setting, you might run across graphical issues and other things, most notably being unable to Alt-Tab from the game and such things in some games misbehaving with the Wine renderer.
 
The following is the solution on how to resolve the problem:
# Open the Registry Editor (regedit) thru Run
# Navigate to the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\DDSwitcher
# Make new String value titled the game's executable name for example: Heroes3.exe for Heroes of Might and Magic 3
# The key's value should be set to "system" without quotes to fallback to the standard DirectDraw DLL.
# The problem should be resolved.
