Me too! :'(

My daughters PC.  Does it need to be XP or is there something else required?

I'm off to try this :

Although that relates to XP I think its worth a try - Looks as if world of goo needs to be installed by administrator not a normal user.

EDIT: Doesnt help

RAM problem, potentially? When a program starts to run out of RAM, it tends to try putting stuff in another program's RAM space. Of course, that usually happens with extremely small amounts of RAM, like 128MB.
