vo_directx (some text about the error being FATAL) failed getting proc address: DirectrDrawCreateFx
My Win95 box has DirectX 5, and SiS 5597/5598 video. I have tried using other -vo options, with various other errors encountered.
That isn't remotely enough information for someone to help you (unless they just happen to have experienced the same problem).
I attempted to upgrade DirectX (if that'd help), and couldn't find a more up-to-date version
DirectX 8.0a. Get it (and save it) before Microsoft hides it forever. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=746f9e61-98f4-491d-8335-27fac7d46258&DisplayLang=en
Also, I tried a couple of the GUI's that are out there.
A GUI isn't going to make it work any better.
