Well, it seems to be a crash while the DOS extender is still setting up
things for TTD, before TTDPatch gets even started.  I have no idea what
could cause this, but maybe you can try playing with the memory settings
in the Win98 shortcut.

For reference, these work for me:
Conventional memory: auto
Initial environment: 2048
EMS: 16384
XMS: 16384 (HMA box not checked)
DPMI: 60000
