It has been a long time since I have posted here and I felt the need to share my findings.
Windows 8/8.1 Performance fix
The game runs very poorly on windows 8/8.1 due to DirectDraw being deprecated. There is an easy way to fix this. Simply download the ddraw.dll from this link: http://www.mediafire.com/download/5poof ... PS_FIX.zip and place the ddraw.dll in the same directory as Game.exe and the game should run nice and smooth.
Music Fix
I have found a way to completely solve the music problem and, as an added bonus, this fix will play the music from your hard drive instead of the disc.
First download the program _inmm.dll from this link: http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Domino/8282/ (Click on the blue text that says "_inmm.dll Ver. 2.38")
Extract and install the program.
Now, you will need to rip the audio tracks from the game cd. Just use a program you are comfortable working with or find a program with google. I would suggest extracting them as mp3's because that is what worked perfectly for me. I'm sure other formats will work fine as well.
I would also suggest putting the tracks in a folder named "Music" in the game's directory, just to be organized.
Here's the tricky part. You will need to open both the directory where the game is installed and the directory where the _inmm.dll program is installed. Once you have both directories open, click and drag Game.exe onto _inmmcnf.exe. You should see a small dialog box asking you if you wish to patch the .exe of the game. Select yes, and you should see a message saying patch successful. You're almost done at this point.
NOTE: You will see a file named "Game.org". This is the original unpatched copy of game.exe.
Now, open _inmmcnf.exe. In the small window that appears, select the drop down selection next to default and select "DirectShow". Click Apply.
NOTE: Make sure to have _inmmcnf.exe to run as administrator in compatibility settings or the fix will not work.
Now its time to make the magic happen.
In the same window, select the _inmm.dll tab. Click add and navigate to where you have the ripped music tracks. Select all of them and click OK. Make sure they are in order from 2 to 10. Finally, click on save and save the _inmm.ini file into the same directory as Game.exe.
That's it! Try the game without the CD now and the music should play perfectly. You might need a no cd patch.
