SOLVED:
If you are getting this error upon running the game, right click My Computer Properties/Advanced/Performance/Settings/Data Execution Prevention/Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I choose and Add the DarkStar One exe from your GOG.com Darkstar installation folder. Click Apply/OK.

This solution doesn't work for me. :-(
Neither running the game in administrator mode, compatibility mode, with reduced desktop resolution or changed *.dll files from the other solutions (I was getting a bit desperate).
Does have anyone a suggestion what else I could do?

Specs:
I5-2500
Windows 7 pro x64 (all updates installed)
GTX 770 (driver 344.48)
HP w2207 (1680x1050 native resolution)

Found a somewhat funny workaround. I had to do quite the opposite of what is the suggested solution, by changing the DEP settings from "all programs and services except those I select" to "only essential Windows operating system programs and services".

Now Darkstar One is working fine.

Sadly this fix isn't working for me on my Windows 7 64 bit. I've done dep, resolution change, deleted the dll, played with my resolution settings, run as admin, etc. All I get is a crash and then uncaught exception in LoadMipMap and the other 3 errors that come with it. Sad that this hasn't been fixed over the years yet. I'd advise people not to waste their money on this one. No support apparently.
