I can't reproduce the issue on Windows 10 x64 with nVIDIA driver version 367.33.

GirlsGotRhythm16, can you verify that you've got the latest graphics drivers installed for your computer?

DirectDraw has been deprecated by Microsoft for a while now, I've simply left it in S9x in the state it has always been. It has no real way of enabling/disabling Bilinear filtering, so your driver might simply not do it. These were my findings last time I checked:

Since it works for odditude I'd say it depends on the graphics driver.

I'd suggest to simply switch to Direct3D or OpenGL, those have no problems with enabling bilinear filtering.
