I got a new gaming laptop with windows 11 and was having awful flickering effects with Napoleon in Italy, - but when i put in the DDrawcompat file this fixed the flickering but all the units in the game were black boxes. This has now been fixed and the DDrawcompat file that i attached to this thread

makes Napoleon in Italy run perfectly again in windows 11 - of course for some there may not be any issue to begin with and for others perhaps this wont fix things, but if you are having problems runnign Napoleon in Italy (or For Liberty) then this ddraw.dll file may be what will fix graphic issues for you
