I can't reproduce that with the English CD version of the game and the current development version of ScummVM on my Linux box. Non-English versions and floppy versions of the game probably haven't been tested nearly as much, and some ports of ScummVM have their own sets of unique bugs, of course.

Surprisingly often, the answer to mysterious crashes that no one else can reproduce is to re-copy the data files from the original CD or floppies. Of course, I have no way of knowing if that's the answer in this case as well.

You mean the platform setting for the game? It tells ScummVM which version of the game it is. It can affect things. For instance, I believe the Amiga versions of some LucasArts games store graphics in a different format. Generally, you shouldn't touch that setting unless you're sure of what you're doing.

Remove the game information and add it again. ScummVM will detect it automatically
