I set up vmware and used my copy of winxp on it. Then i installed Age of Empires II: The conquerers on it. It's a 10 year old game that is extremely lightweight. When i begin the game everything works well but the text on the lower right corner of the screen(attached pic) is scrambled. No other text in the game is affected.
I tried changing the game resolution but it didn't work. When i put the game in 1280x1024, the shadows started to look funny, it looked like some texture was tiled all over with identifiable boundaries unlike the seamless boundaries you usually see for shadows. In 1024x768 and 800x600 there aren't any other problems other than the scrambled text.
Could someone help me out with resolving this problem?
