Sorcerer's Place has an archive of official patches for RoMD. I can't say whether any of the patches can address the issues you're facing but it may be a good place to start.

If not, you can try their forums. I believe there is still the occasional thread about the game there.
When I played this in XP,it occasionly done this.Didn't use patch,but the only fix I
found was to come out of game back to desktop and reload game.At the time it
fixed that problem.
ive tried both and not successfull if anyone can help id be really greatfull
I remember wanting the '90s remake of this one so badly (as a huge fan of these games) but I never picked it up. I remember thinking the physics looked amazing - I think the game boasted destructable objects that could be used as improvised weapons, or moved and set up as cover etc. For reasons I don't recall I never picked it up; then when I heard it was a bit of a mess I decided never to do so.

Now however I wouldn't mind giving it a shot at all. I actually hope it ends up here. Anyone know why it doesn't?

For the same reason that the GoldBox D&D games aren't here; licenses. The game's rights belongs to Ubisoft.

What about the "remake" from the late 90s / early 00s? Or was that still a Ubi held property as well?

Yup. The GoldBox games and the remake's rights are held by Ubisoft (In fact, the original publisher of the remake was Ubisoft themselves).

Did not know that - thanks again! Believe it or not, Ubi was one of my favorite devs / pubs for a long time. Obviously I've been unhappy with some of their recent moves but for a while they had a string of amazing properties in their stable. So I'm surprised I didn't realize this was one of theirs.
Don't play that game, it's really terrible.
So its up to GOG o pry the licence off this game so so we can have a go at it
You need the last patch for the game to work properly. Version number 1.4
