if you are running Win-ME you need to go to the Black Isle site and down load the Up grade patch for playing the game on other than Win-98 or you can search here on the forum. just look at the top of this page just under POST A REPLY and click on Search and then type the word Patch and click search.

If entering a certain area will reliably crash your game, it's almost certainly a problem with the *.BIF file for that area. Reinstall, and hope the file is transferred from CD to hard drive correctly this time.

If it still doesn't work, your CD itself may be scratched or corrupted, and that is a badness. You may try to borrow a set of CDs from a friend, and performing a FULL install with their discs.
