Following the advice I found on Pcgamingwiki I was able to start the game using dgVoodoo and set it to widescreen. Most of the time it doesn't crash, however the framerate is quite low - lower than 30fps I believe, but I should check - and textures keep loading in the game and when I pause. It is a much clunkier experience than when I had it installed on my old windows 8 laptop. Do you have any tips on how to optimally set dgvoodoo or other settings on this new laptop? Unfortunately, by messing with the recommended setup I risk - as has already happened - crashing the game.

Windows 10
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8750H CPU @ 2.20GHz 2.21 GHz
RAM: 16.0 GB
Video card: nvidia geforce rtx 2060

Also don't go above 60fps or the AI will bug out and become totally passive.

Apologies for the late reply I followed the advice on the thread you linked, but there was no noticeable improvement. I have a doubt that I installed dgvoodoo incorrectly, because when the game asks me to select the driver and card, no mention of dgvoodoo appears, as some guides claim. I will try to review if this is not the case.

Thank you, that was exactly what I needed to do. The frame drops have decreased substantially, although the game crashes randomly at startup. I verified that handling the vram settings led to some results in starting the game, although I didn't quite understand by what criteria. I will try to see if I can find any consistent solutions.
