I've been having a problem running DII (and by extension Median) on my computer. It boots fine and even runs fine for the most part. However, I experience frequent frame skips (I don't know how else to describe it). The game seems to desync and then catch up quickly. It's really disorienting, and it's frustrating enough that I can't quite enjoy the game the same.
I know that a more proper diagnosis would require more information than this, but I've tried running d2vidtest and switching to all three options available to me currently: DirectDraw, Direct3D, and Glide (Glide3-to-OpenGL Wrapper). I've also tried all three with -w (windowed mode), and in all cases I still experience these frame tears. I'm running on Windows 7 Home Premium with Intel Core i5 (2.5 GHz) processor, 8GB of RAM, and Intel HD Graphics 3000 video (laptop video card).
Is this a known problem with a documented fix, or should I provide video of what I'm talking about? It'd be a pain to provide, but I could record it on my phone and upload it if necessary.
