Hey guys, not sure if people have figured out a way to fix this or not, but I thought I'd share my solution. I got it to work completely, game and all, after spending a hour tinkering with stuff. What you do is download and add the .dll that is mentioned above, then run the game in compatibility mode for xp (I dont think it matter which sp). Next, before running the game, go into the setup utility and change the resolution to the highest it will go (1280 X 1024?) and then change the desktop resolution to match. Finally, as mentioned above, run it in windowed and as administrator and viola! Enjoy you're game guys ^_^.
