Ah, yes, crashes during confrontation... a well-known problem, and addressed in the Tech Tips thread, I believe.

Simple answer: there's too much going on graphically, which overloads things until your PC dies.

Easiest way out: when the confrontation starts, don't look at it. Instead, turn and face the wall. As close as you can get. That minimizes the graphics display requirements. Then, when it's time, turn around and do something (fight, whatever). When that's done, turn and face the wall again.

Odds are that will let you get past this tricky point. You might also want to make sure you have as little as possible running in the background when you do it, so before starting W&W, close down as much as you can. If you have questions about what you can get rid of or not, ask away.

You *CAN* make it through... it just might be a challenge.
