In the interests of compatibility testing (torturing poor ROS), (and because I am easily amused) I made some screen grabs of ROS running various AUTORUN programs. Seems our GDI subsystem has some problems with transparency still-- Nomad Soul's autoplay should have a transparent background...
You can find the screenshots here:

Some of them were taken before I loaded up the VMware SVGA driver, so bear with me here.

We actually don't support it at all. There are two ways how to achieve transparent Windows. First one is calling SetWindowRgn that sets the shape of the window. This is realtivly easy to implement for us. The second way is using WS_EX_TRANSPARENT window style (supported on W2K+), but looking at the screenshor it seems that the game was introduced before the W2K release, so the SetWindowRgn hypothesis seems more likely to be the cause.
