Win98 compatibility mode failed utterly... couldn't even load a savegame. Shut down all processes (including Spybot, ZoneAlarm, AVG, and every other protective thing) and it ran successfully. Still hung when shutting down, but at least I could alt-tab out to Windows and kill it.

I may try the patch tonight (or maybe not), and I may need to look into the video drivers or DX 9.0B again. I suspect it's video-related.
