No, it is a false positive. The developer of dgVoodoo himself has been fairly outspoken about it too, so if you did a little bit of research you would have already realised this.

There is no need to worry.
I'm on Windows 10 2004 and it didn't help me, there is black screen and nothing happens when I run the game, I tired everything :(
This got the game to finally work!!! Thank you so much. :D Before it would always crash at start up or not even start at all, even with the GIM mod. I'm using GIM (won't load without it) and since the dgvoodoo wrapper requires to use the DKII.exe and not the DKII-DX.exe, it says the patch is at 1.5 in the lower left on the main menu. Is this 1.7 under the hood with improved AI? It seems like it is as the jack-in-the-box trap and maidens are still there, at least in skirmish (not sure on my pet dungeon modes). The documentation is a bit confusing.

Also, I have a 1600 x 900 monitor. How would I go about to getting the game to run in that resolution? :)

EDIT: It does revert to 1.5 and removes elites, and the maiden (to be fair she was 1.7 only). I find that a bummer! However, I was able to load the game without the GIM mod and just used dgvoodoo wrapper and was able to recruit the maiden and elites in my pet dungeon. So I'm happy. Had to set the DKII.exe in windows XP compat. Wish there was improved AI for 1.7 content. Maybe there is, I could be missing something.

@soullos: GIM is version 1.51 with some of 1.7 features merged in. This is because 1.7 is broken.

@devilhood: Somebody made a new pack for GIM, better link to this one:
https://keeperklan.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=145

This is pure GIM, without the balance changes, but it includes the fixed single player levels. This way people can attract Dark Angels in single player and still play multiplayer against non-gim people. DKII.exe is for single player, DKII-DX.exe for multiplayer.

There's a multiplayer server on the keeperklan discord for people to find people to play with: https://discord.gg/FgbtuYJqzc
Installed the Voodoo and GIM mods after lagg and trailing issues, which they resolve however they change the graphics to be difficult to see whats going on, any suggestions would be appreciated

For anyone facing the Black&White only graphics issue, the above steps also help with that. No more graphics issues after doing the steps!

Thanks for providing those Whynotsian!

I have no such option, just "Adjust image settings with preview", "Manage 3D settings", and "Configure Surround, PhysX".

me either
can anyone help with this?
Can't get it working properly either. If I leave it at default settings and follow the instruction, the game launches, but parts of it is in black and white, and the game itself looks way off, like super washed out. If I go into any map, it's even worse and the escape menu is unreadable.

If I tweak the DirectX settings videocard option, I can get the game working fine and looking good, only now the hand of evil is a black and white box, until I pick something up and it reverts to normal so long I hold something. If I drop it, it goes back to the box.

No really sure how to fix this, anyone experience something similar ?
any chance of a windows 11 update to this post?
Since this post was made, Flame has been released. It fixes the most important DK2 bugs and should not be missed by anybody. See here: https://www.gog.com/forum/dungeon_keeper_series/flame_dungeon_keeper_2_partial_recompilation_with_bug_fixes
the gog version runs in windows 10 without any fixes. i just installed it and ran it.
