I was having this problem soon after I installed the game.
I hope this helps someone else, because it took me awhile to find the problem.

I loaded a previous game, then went to [Options], then to [Game], then I enabled "save text in dialogs"

Then I went back to options, and saved my game from there, (thinking this would make this setting "stick").

I had a picture of the options screen in this game save.

After this, any time I pressed a key on my keyboard, the game sent me to the desktop. [Win 98SE]

I don't know if the problem exists in the above setting or saving the game while in the [options] screen.

This was my only game save other than a quicksave I had.

After many tries, of loading this particular game save and having the above problem occur, I loaded my quicksave, and all was fine.

So, there had to be a problem with the above save, because nothing else was changed, except I re-installed Direct-X while trying to find the problem.
