DxWnd is a Windows application that allows running old games on modern computers. The utility enables users to adjust control settings, select graphic and sound quality, and even choose the DirectX version.

Configuration

After launching the program, users need to drag the game’s executable file into the main window. Then, they can proceed with the configuration. It is possible to select screen resolution and color depth, connect additional libraries, and set control parameters.

Additionally, the utility ensures compatibility of old applications with modern operating system versions. DxWnd also allows adjusting the cursor’s position on the screen and specifying data processing rules by the processor. The joystick emulation feature is supported as well.

Monitoring

Similar to FPS Meter, this utility enables users to add overlays on the screen showing information about frame rate. This function helps monitor performance. There is also an option to enable recording of system events into a log.
