Maybe fixing resolution to 16 bits before starting the game will solve the problem.
The last Novalogic update "ttfupd8i.zip" includes all previous updates and improves on 3D cards compatibility.
The Bink player tool may not be transferring control back to the 3D card for the game. The last version also with smacker update:

Check out windowsupdate.microsoft.com in July Application Compatibility package should include a fix for Tachyon.
