I immediately copied the files over to my existing ScummVM install, so I don't
know how the GOG package performs. I'm doing fine with ScummVM 1.3.1, I think
GOG was using 1.2 something. The data files are good.

You could try what I did. Install ScummVM 1.3.1. Then move "clusters,"
"movies," "speech" and "video" folders into a "sword1" folder in ScummVM. Then
you can add the game by selecting "sword1" in ScummVM.

You can get a current copy of ScummVM here:

http://www.scummvm.org/downloads/

"Windows Installer" is easiest.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help. :^(
