I can confirm that it seems that version 195.62 of the NVIDIA Windows 7 32-bit drivers are a cause of the trouble. When I downgraded to 185.85 I was able to run the game fine, but 195.62 crashes before reaching the the main menu but after the initial splash videos with an error message like the one you can see in the original post.
This is when attempting to start the King's Bounty: Armored Princess demo, I can only assume full retail has the same problem.
These previously selected solution of deleting game.ini does not apply because I had no such file. (Probably because I had yet to run the game successfully prior to downgrading my drivers.)
