ddraw bug)

Hi Ryan, I had a look at the debug log of the demo. Some highlights:

0011:Call advapi32.RegCreateKeyExA(80000002,00391bdc "Software\\Wildfire
Studios\\Balls of Steel\\Display profile",00000000,
00478484,00000000,000f003f,00000000,0033f8dc,0033f8c4) ret=0040bd33
0011:Ret  advapi32.RegCreateKeyExA() retval=00000000 ret=0040bd33
0011:Call advapi32.RegQueryValueExA(0000009c,00391c20 "Refresh
rate",00000000,0033f8c0,0033f794,0033f8bc) ret=0040be3d
0011:Ret  advapi32.RegQueryValueExA() retval=00000002 ret=0040be3d

It cannot find the registry key HKLM\\Software\\Wildfire Studios\\Balls of
Steel\\Display profile\\Refresh rate. 
I set this key manually ( "Refresh rate" = "60" and the demo starts up fine
then. Ryan, could you check 2 things please:

1. Can you get the retail version running by setting this key.
2. Could you check if this key is present after a default install on windows. If
so, something might have gone wrong during install of the app
