mmmm....which game?
Check the Games Database (http://transgaming.org/gamesdb/) to see if theres any listing, or the unofficial Wiki (http://digital-conquest.ath.cx/wiki/index.php/Main_Page) will probalby have more up to data info.
Try messing with the settings under the Graphics tab, one at a time. Also the version of Windows being 'emulated'.
it's Grim Fandango...
don't have this game at the official database, but I already rune it...
thank you so much man!
the unofficial wiki give me the version that run Grim Fandando GOOD :D
Cedega 4.3.2 (best)

Ya, I don't think the official databe even gets updated any more...
the wiki is mantained by those of us that actually want to help others with this :D
Looks like that game can use some updating though, it hasn't been tested at all with the 5.x series. The key to running it looks like this line, so it should work well with the newer versions with this
"Game must be run via grimfandgo.exe rather than Grim.exe in order to bypass a DirectX version check"
