Actually, that reminds me: Ever since my PC went dual-core, The Settlers 
will no longer run. Nothing I do seems to fix it. When you try to start 
the game, it just summarily crashes with an obscure error message.

I keep thinking maybe I could run it in a VM - except that I'd need a 
license for another copy of Windows XP, and nobody sells those any more.

Oh, I've seen plenty of PC games do things they shouldn't. What I'm 
saying is that it's fairly rare for a game to *crash*. Sometimes a game 
won't work at all, but it's unusual for one to intermittently crash. 
(Unless that game is Cryostasis. :-P )
