IWD:EE - Game crashes on start

I get to the screen where I can choose between running the original game and HOW. HOW works fine but whenever I click on the original game the game crashes.

Does anyone have any ideas? Have you encountered anything similar?

    Which platform are you running the game on? (Windows, Mac, Linux)

    Also, are you playing the version from Beamdog, or the one from Steam?

    Got it working.

    Ran the game in compatibility mode Windows 7.

    A few people had similar issues with BG:EE and BGII:EE and reboots after installing helped them. Might be worth trying that if not already done.
