Try different graphic mode:
There is graphic mode setup for each GOG's DOSBox game under Menu Start/Programs/GOG.com/<game>

You may also try playing in windowed mode - go to your Ishar3 folder, open *.conf file in Notepad and change line fullscreen=true to false.
Hi

This game seems to be very buggy. It crashes often. I tried all settings, and of course fullscreen and window-mode.

But now it is extremely annoying: I am in the forest and talked to the hexed magician, took the text-roll and i am on my way back to mather. But on the way i am attacked by bees. And during the fight it crashes ALWAYS. What can i do ?

My System: Win7 32 Bit
After entering the tower of Mather Fudius and speaking to him I had to enter a word from the manual and the game chrashed. Is this game not DRM-free?

DRM free as in it doesn't install SecureRom or Tages.
You can find passwords in the manual, page 2. Manual is in the installation folder. I hope someone makes a GOG mix that lists games that require passwords. It would be helpful to know which games need passwords before playing.

I had a crash too. I'll try the DOSBOX configuration to see if that helps.
Ishar 3 is crashing here too :-(

Ishar 1 & 2 are playing fine. Any idea what can i do?
Disabling sound in Ishar 3 setup worked for me. The game still crashes but not as often. Hope it helps.

I had the same problem until when I'd switched "Keep aspect ratio" in graphic mode setup to on.
It really, REALLY doesn't work for me. :S

How do you do that? I can't find that option anywhere

I managed to get it working by changing soundblaster 16 to soundblaster 2.0
