Hi Stefan, i own nvidia 8600GT v195.36.15.

The situation is, that when you run the game in 1.1.43, it immediately goes
back to console. This can be "fixed" by reverting:

* 8662bd7555593fe010b02e0f2f0bd80fd858ed41
 * ddraw: Fix some Z buffer formats.

That's not possible for version higher than 1.1.29, so i made my own hack:

--- a/dlls/ddraw/utils.c.orig
+++ b/dlls/ddraw/utils.c
-            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 32;
+            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 24;

-            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 32;
+            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 24;

-            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 32;
+            DDPixelFormat->u1.dwZBufferBitDepth = 24;

Than the game starts and displays white screen with crash. This is regression
since 1.1.13 caused by commit:

* efcecb9b99331a39f2f96d456df280a15a9557ca
 * ddrawex: Implement a wrapper around IDirectDraw.

Revering this one on top of 1.1.43 fails, but i did that anyway and than rip
dlls/ddrawex/Makefile.in so it successfully compiles.

Since that, Hype - The time quest starts again on 1.1.43 :-D
