Issues with WCP on XP Professional

Doc

I'm new to the forum so forgive me if this has been answered elsewhere. I have a home built system with XP Pro with the following:
3.0GHz Processor
2GB RAM
250GB HD
1GB XFX Video Card

I just installed WCP on this system with Z's Glide Wrapper and was having the video speed issues but could ran all the accelerated video options in the game without any problems. HUD graphics looked great etc... I installed the Enhancement Pack, H-Res VOB's, and VOB pack and recommended MPEG2 codecs to correct the cinematics and they did, perfectly. After this the I could no longer select Fog as an accelerated video option and the there were issues with the HUD. The Navigation Cross does not appear and Resolution is crap and the cockpit struts are missing. I verified it's running in 3DFX mode, I tried D3D and software with no luck. I have tried using custom settings in glide wrapper with no luck as well. Any help would be appreciated.
 
I'm not familiar with an XFX video card. Is that some sort of nvidia or ati? ATI cards have occasionally had issues with the crosshairs. You would need to go in and adjust a number of your driver options in that case.

Does the 3dfx logo pop up when you start the game? It doesn't make sense that fog disappears in 3dfx mode. I believe the zeckensack wrapper has resolution limitations that you'll have to work within (something like 1280x1024 max? maybe less). You probably need to rerun the high res installer for a resolution that the glide wrapper can support.
