How to run The Settlers Fourth Edition on (Windows 7, 8, 10)

Hello everyone I hope this video will further help you to play The Settlers Fourth Edition. I added more fixes than I had in the previous video. Hopefully I made it a lot easier for people to follow and a little less clunky. I am leaving the old video up mainly for people with windows 7 if they would like to attempt to run it without the DXGL program. I will leave a link to the old video in the Links section. I will also leave marks for specific points in the video for fixes so please look at the fixes section here in the description. Links: DXGL: patches: Screen aspect ratio: Windows 7 16-bit color change: Outdated video: Fixes: 3D software and 3D hardware failure 4:10 || Fatal error Exception 0x0000005 4:10 || Black Box issue 4:16 || Screen Resolution permanently on 800x600 5:26 || Can not place buildings 6:06 || Videos are black when loading 6:36 || Video file not in config folder 7:01 || If you are still having issues feel free to leave a comment and I will attempt to help.
