There's two problems, that I never used to have on the same CD, a few years ago. I felt like I wanted to play Worms again, so I installed WWP, and these problems occured:
The Menus were really really slow. I mean, it took at least 30 seconds to get past the Team 17 and Tidus logos. Then, to go into menus took at least 3-4 seconds each, and when I finally got into a game, everything was gone, except the objects. What I mean by objects is like, Worms, targets, item pickups, etc. Everything else was gone, and the text was all funky.
I have the latest graphics drivers for my computer, and the weird thing is, the sound wasn't off! All the sounds are normal speed, its like the graphics driver was screwing up, but I don't see why. Any reason on this/something that may assist this problem would be greatly appreciated.

All I can tell you is that it's been fixed on WA. Other than that, a forum search* should reveal details on how to get around the problem by using [I believe] unofficial or very old drivers, but that doesn't work anywhere near always. So unless you're prepared to buy another graphics card...
WA is better. Get WA.
* Searching for "Slow frontend" should do the trick.

the frontend is slow because of a method that is used that is no longer availible in nvidia drivers since like v69.xx so unless you want to use ancient drivers that most likely wont work with new games, your out of luck at fixing the slow menu's.
W:A has a workaround function included.
