4 years ago Sorry to bother again, but I fixed it myself. Problem was Gsync. It has to be switched to a fixed Refreh Rate in the Nvidia Control Panel. Then the Game starts and is playable.
Please close this Issue.

Hey there,
first of all many Thanks for your great work!
I've an issue with Star Trek Armada 1 under Windows 10. I can't start the Program. When I start the Game, I see the little Armada-SplashScreen in the middle. Then the whole Screen gets Black with a (big-scaled) waiting Cursor (Circle) in the middle. Then it immediately returns to Desktop. Program no more running according to Task Manager.
Windows 10, 1909 GeForce GTX 1070 AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 32 GB RAM Sound Blaster AE-7 One G-sync Monitor plugged in via Displayport at 144Hz Drivers are the latest
I installed Armada, then official Patch 1.2, then Patch 1.3 and your dxwrapper. I tried different Folders and different dxwrapper-Versions. All didn't work. Have you any Idea, how to get the Game running?
