Picture of "attempt to enter the menu screen during gameplay"

[Sanhime]

I apologize for the large picture size.

[Sanhime]

AHHH crap! I'm getting the same problem with Pete's D3D and OpenGL plugs. Everything I try to enter the menu screen, whether during gameplay, or after the title screen. THe game becomes blurred and stalls.

[Sanhime]

GAAH! Looks like the only way around this is to use a software plug or run Lewpy's plug in pure-software ON.

[Sanhime]

Come on guys! Don't tell me that no one here plays DW7!?!?!? I can't get this game to rnu "properly" on any of the 3D plugs.
