Notes

Textures flickering/see through
- You can try to set the game to Windows 95 compatibility and software rendering. However, it's likely that on modern graphics cards this will outright not work. For example, it has been reported to straight out not work with recent Nvidia drivers[2] For an alternative solution, read on:

Error: Error code does not indicate an error
This error occurs when midi music could not be successfully outputted. Make sure your midi output device ingame is 'Microsoft MIDI Mapper'. Refer to No music fix.

Close all background running applications. Overseer seems to be sensitive to certain programs running at the same time.
Colours are pink/purple and game is rendered twice
This happens when the game is minimized, so don't do it. If this occurs you will need to restart the game and/or find the cause of the minimization, see Game minimizes itself
MPEG-2 driver error
The game might not play back any videos for you and instead great you with an error regarding your MPEG-2 configuration. In order to resolve this:
