Got pretty the same GPU hardware - nVIDIA GTS250 (which is essentially same as
9800), but an older version of driver - 256.29. Would try to update and check
if that helps.

Sure. Still it'd be good if you find a minute and test this registry key to
cause problems on your PC too. My intention is that if the docs (official wiki)
say that the default in case of absence of this key is "gdi" then the game (and
wine) should work the same with this key present and set to "gdi" and with this
key absent. As this is not true as my test shown then it might be a wrong docs
or a bug in wine.
