Disablign DirectX 7 usage in graal might cause a performance hit but it will be playable. Also if you have a TNT2 card or something with a similar chipset do the following (prevents crashes for agp style TNT2 cards and a few others)

DirectX8's change with DirectX7 is that DirectDraw is no longer DirectDraw - it's all Direct3D.
Also... Graal still uses DirectInput and DirectX a little bit in No DirectX7 mode and No DirectInput mode. If it didn't, then my InterAct HammerHead FX wouldn't be supported by it (I tried it on my Win98SE system).
