unfortunately I am unable to even run the game.

all I can get is up to starting the game and before the game proper loads - the computer resets.
I have turned off the auto restart at crash - so when the crash occurs it locks at the BSOD showing initially,
Problem Caused by nv4_disp.dll
Page_Fault_In_Nonpaged_Area.
tech Info:
STOP: 0x00000050 (0XBDE297CE, 0X00000001, 0XBFA06ECA, 0X00000002)
nv4_disp.dll - address BFA06ECA base at BF9BB000, DateStamp 3cc090b7.

I reloaded the most recent driver, and servicepack, also the directX , and still get crash, now with a slightly different stop code.
STOP:0X0000008E (0X00000005, 0XBFA08B2F, 0XF325F904, 0X00000000)
nv4_disp.dll - Address BFA08B2F base at BF9BB000, DateStamp 3fd73a78.

PC computer
Toshiba , WinXP
nVidia GeForce4 420 GO [Toshiba]

this is the only programme or game which causes this type of lockup or crash.

It is a pity M$ has had to make the OS so complicated - the original Monkey Islands would run on almost every computer which could run DOS ...
Many games today have detectors built-in which look for compatibility with the requirements need to run it checking graphics, OS, CPU, etc. ... and wont install if standards not met ...
With the problems trying to run This one, perhaps this direction may be needed for future editions.
ALSO
please add a Machine Requirements list for running the games!
