The hardware acceleration is based on a card which can support it. Try turning the accel, down a notch or two.
Run DXDIAG.exe to find other problems. DXDIAG should already be on your sys.

They both will work perfectly, until you open windows.

All things being equal, if its just the op sys you changed, than you probly have a wrong driver, or maybe the monitor or video card etc just failed by co-incidence at the same time. Did you install an AGP, or VXD driver for your mainboard, run an old setup disk with drivers for win'98 or something like that?
