I put the d3d8.dll and scripts folder into my directory but now the exe wont launch the game. If I remove just the scripts folder, game starts again. Would anyone know what im doing wrong?

I may be doing this all wrong, but trying to launch VC using that program results in a crash at an address 006f330. I have tried replicating other folks settings, I have tried checking specific settings that other users reported to have helped. Would anyone have settings or information. If I just add VC like that to the program and launch without changing any setting it will still say cant find 640x480 resolution, in compatibility settings, checking the box for that exact resolution results in no function and my resolution being changed.
