with XP dungeon siege ran flawlessly, sadly XP is not being supported by Microsoft in 2014, but it was diffinately the best system to run any of the DS series of games on. Win7 especially 64bit, Dungeon Siege seems to have issues, however it not generally protection exception, it's more installation issues as ds don't like the new program files folder of win7, so have to install into another location... Protection Exception could be caused by the cd reading the files wrong (scratch on cd?), the ram being faulty stick, or even the video driver considering NVidia has made some bad drivers lately that can destroy fans on video cards. if not up to date, or even lack of mobo drivers, most likely hardware and driver issues are causing it.
It's a shame your having so much bad luck with this great game, but there have been many people here who have played Dungeon Siege with no issues.
