I'm sure you've heard of DirectX, right?

Blitz3D uses DirectX yet doesn't work on TabletPC Editions of Windows XP. Using an API like DirectX does not prevent you from having compatibility issues. Take AAA games, like Rise of Nations and The Matrix. Both used DirectX and both required very specific (and different) versions of the nVidia drivers to work properly (or in some cases, at all).

I'm able to play all of the games I've bought
since 1995.

Here is a non-exhaustive list of PC games I cannot play anymore: Dune, M.A.X., The Lost Vikings, Fallout, Incubation, Panzer General 3D Assault and Knights of the Old Republic 2.
