Try this. Right click "My Computer" and select properties, click
advanced tab, under performance click settings, click Data Execution
Prevention. Make sure it is only protecting DEP for essential Windows
programs and services only. If you have the other selected where it
protects all programs it can screw up some games from executing.

Well, there you go. The latest Nvidia drivers and cards are known to
have some issue with some older games. Maybe ask about them in the
Nvidia video group and you will get some better answers.
