Thanks for your help. My visual effects are already none, and in the virtual desktop the game died with an Unexpected Error (last message the terminal blurted out was "err:ole:CoInitializeEx Attempt to change threading model of this apartment from apartment threaded to multi-threaded"). Also, same symptoms regardless with or without window manager controlling or decorating any windows.

Rather annoyed by the fact, that apparently everyone seems to run this game just by typing "wine hydorah.exe" in the terminal, except me. Not fair, dammit.

Oh BTW, which version was your wine when you tested the game?
