Yea game won't play with windows 8 or higher without something to fix that lack of ddraw that got removed from recent versions of Windows. Dxwnd works best to fix it imo, there is a guide somewhere is technical help.
Sometimes one of the 3 downloads of the game without dxwnd works but not always.

Can you create a new character? That will tell you whether you are trying to login to deleted files.

If you login with a new character and the screen goes blank then it is a direct draw issue.

In that case you have a number of alternatives (in order of simplicity):
1. Try the two alternative Fixes included in the game download. See step 5 in Windows7/8/10 Compatibility Guide
2. Try to install and use DxWnd Forum DxWnd
3. Try to use a Virtual Machine running Windows XP or Linux with Wine.
