Curses! Foiled Again! After playing Irenicus' dungeon 25 times, through Chapter 3 a dozen times, the Underdark 7 times, Chapter 6-- 3x, I finally reached Suldenessalar. Much rejoicing!

Now, I've gotten as far as the first room (with 3 minor golems) then crash! Load quicksave & crash! Over and over! Sometimes I'm shunted back to the desktop. Sometimes I'm completely frozen out, to where I must do a hard shut down.

Can someone help me? I really want to see how this game ends. I have straight SoA, with the latest patch, and only the ease of use mod. I'll be grateful for any assistance.

1) Try deleting all files in cache subdirectory of bg2
2) Try latest autosave
3) Try previous save
4) Try re-installing of the game

First question: do you run the full installation?
Second question: is there any error displayed on screen when it crashes?
Third question: does the crash happen anywhere else in Elven City or only in this room?

Suggestion: try with deleting all files subfolder called "cache", then restart BG2.

[EDIT]I'm too slow! :(

Thanks guys. I decided to go back in my saves first, since I'm not that technically proficient. I went back to the last autosave and crashed again. I went to the save before that and then everything went fine, even the troublesome room. I probably coulda saved myself a couple hours of replayed gaming by cleaning my cache. But I'm not so hip on those things, so this worked out.

Yea! I'm goin' to Hell! Er... that doesn't sound right....
