I went to play Grim Fandango recently, after watching Double Fine's quite amusing script reading in E3.

I'm sure it used to work, but now it crashes with the ol'

"GrimFandango.exe has stopped working"

which suggest some sort of DEP/stack overflow problem?

There was another post about a similar error but not much in the way of solutions (Reinstall graphics driver, which I tried!)

I updated to the newest version of Grim Fandango but that also didn't help.

My other DF games work; Full Throttle and Day of the Tentacle for instance, and all my other GoG games work - It's just Grim Fandango that is giving me grief!

Any suggestions...? Halp!
