The laptop has a "4 shades of blue" supertwist 640x200 CGA display, in a wide format.

Tried LCD and WIDE modes. The game loads. Menus are corrupt (instead of the pointer, I get a 4x scaled BJ, sometimes the OPTIONS text shows), and once in game, the HUD doesn't display properly. Shooting my gun shows the credits page. When exiting the game, I get garbled text (but am still able to interact with dos and restart the game, I think it's not re-initializing normal video mode)

Photo 1: LCD Startup Photo 2: WIDE Startup Photo 3, 4, 5: Menu corruption Photo 6,7: Showing missing Hud Photo 8: Showing screen after quitting

I could not capture a picture of the credits page while shooting, it just flashes too fast.

I momentarily considered it might be a version mismatch that went awry with the conversion. I'll give that a shot. I was just working from the retail disks I have. I forget what version it is lol.

Problem resolved. It was a version issue. Game now looks correct!
