If the game is crashing repeatedly in the same spot, I would suggest posting in the game forum at GOG before uninstalling. It depends on whether the game has local saves and if they will be wiped out by an uninstall or if the game saves are in the Galaxy app. Did you use Galaxy to download and install?

You might be able to copy that game saves folder to a flash drive and transfer it to the Windows 7 computer. I found some answers on the Steam support page for the game and it just seems that it's not compatible with Windows 10 and newer video card drivers. The only solutions offered are to roll back your video card drivers. This error happens when the game’s installer detects that your system’s graphics drivers are newer than the ones it’s built to support. This is common with older DOS-based or DirectX 9.0c games like Jack Keane 2: The Fire Within, which may not be fully compatible with modern GPU drivers.
Why it happens The installer checks your GPU’s DirectX version and driver signature.
If your GPU is newer than the game’s target (e.g., DirectX 9.0c with older shader model support), the installer aborts to prevent compatibility issues Steam Support.

First I need to figure out how to get the game on my Windows 7 computer. I tried burning the offline backup installer to a disc but it doesn't seem to work (very possible user error as I don't really know how to do this).
And GOG shows it plays on Win 10 and Win 11.
