I tried repeatedly, but cannot reproduce this. Just tested again in wine
1.1.11. Thief Gold and System Shock 2, both start up ok and work. Looks like
sound is broken in this version, both in cutscenes and the rest of the game,
but this appears to be a separate and unrelated regression.

Please make sure to retest with a blank newly created Wine prefix, all default
settings. Also ensure that indeo codecs do get fully and properly installed
during the game setup. One of known crashes of these games is when codecs do
not get installed. Simply saying yes to install codecs may not be enough as the
codec setup included on game CDs doesn't work very stable in Wine and often
crashes silently, without actually completing the job. Watch out for exception
or crash messages in the console during setup. If that's the problem, it can be
fixed by downloading a more modern Intel Indeo codec package (available in lots
of places on the net), which is less bug-prone.
