ToonStruck seems to work with the latest version of ScummVM, they added support for it back in February: http://scummvm.org/news/20110203/

Byond good and evil
the game should be renamed "dual cores are evil"
Disable "HW Vertex Processing" in the Options, and you can Force any program to just use one Core, Alt+Tab out of the game after starting it, open up the Task manager with Ctrl+Alt+Del, go to the Processes TAB, select "bge.exe" --> "Set Affinity" and disable all CPU cores but "CPU 0".
Alternately you can make a .bat file (create a new .txt file in the game's folder and write "start /affinity 1 bge.exe" into it, save then rename the file extension to .bat instead of .txt and use that to start the game.

I really want to play some of the Jagged Alliance games since I'm a big fan of the old X Com games. But unfortunately they don't work with Windows 7. And it really sucks because GoG.com gave me a free copy of Jagged Alliance: Deadly Games for no apparent reason. And they're on sale this week.
You can get the X-Com Complete Packs on either Steam or Direct2Drive (they are configured/used DOSBox and can all be played fine on Win7, I got em during a Sale), there's also a rather complicated way to get X-Com to work otherwise also involving Microsoft's ACT but it doesn't work perfectly and I'd rather not go into it xD

I really liked the splinter cell series (Before double agent) but could only run on Windows XP.
There's also fixes, for instance further down here for Chaos Theory: http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/3651075192/m/2311010408
