Ouch, sorry to hear about your trouble! I have not had any reports about this error before. It sounds like your computer is not able to play the game properly for some reason, and other than trying to restart it to see if it makes any difference i don't have many ideas.
There are two windows versions of the game available for download, maybe try the other one?
If it's still not working you should try it on another PC to see if it works there. Best of luck!
