I agree 100%--it sounds like the dungeon movie is causing the crash, and I have no idea why a few hours would make any difference whatsoever.

I have a similar problem on my computer, except of greater magnitude: If any movie locks up while playing, I don't just get booted to the desktop, the whole machine locks up and I have to Restart. Happily, I have found that having Media Player open in the background, and playing an MP3, greatly reduces the risk of freezing up. You might try that.
