I only used the official v1.1 patch before I played it a while ago. Don't know what other patch you've found or what it does (a link would be nice), but here is what I had to do to be able to play the game.

Turn off every CPU core except one, either by using imagecfg to modify the bd.exe or by alt-tabbing out of the game and doing it manually. This is what I believe will solve your problem.

Another tip is to open bd.ini and lower the values called vres and hres (under options). Before doing that the game was unplayable for me since the image spins out of control only by looking at the mouse.

I also copied all 8 CD:s to a folder and pointed every drive line in bd.ini to that folder. Makes it play completely from the HD.

I never had to lower the graphics acceleration.
