I made a guide that fxes this issue for most people. You may have to fiddle with the resolution a bit.

-Only "Enable Compatibility Mode" -fix to me this but, using Windows XP Service 3 -version. :3
Discovered that if I just launch the game from the start menu, it works. It's only when launching from steam library that it crashes.

What do you do if in step 3B) the properties does not have a compatibility tab?

doesnt work
Didn't work for me either. They should have tested these games before going with the cash cow... I've refunded them now as I can't play them. Glad I was able to play them back in the day.
minimizing and alt tab causes the issue. (most likely also other things)
