The 3rd Birthday

[seeker3]

hey again people. i just tried 3rd b-day on v0.9.8, pc, as before(specs in last, well first, post). it looks beautiful! no "ghosts", excellent graphics, etc(the sound was always good...for me. v0.9.8 rocks!) :DHuzzah! unfortunately, it crashes mid-way through the "Sacrifice" stage. i go through a door, the screen goes blank and then i get this "white box of doom" telling me the program crapped out.
sooo, how do i fix it? instead of screaming at the top of my lungs about the injustice of it all, cuz with 0.9.7. i can play the whole game, but theres a "ghost overlay"(re earlier post) making it hard to see clearly. and now 0.9.8 is graphically "perfect", but suffers from "gamus interruptus", or premature...u know.
any who know the answer to this riddle(best settings to be able to play the WHOLE game not just parts of it), and will impart said knowledge to me, will be greatly praised by me and everyone in my head. cuz thats what happens to some people do when they're manic. they talk...a lot well, thx in advance!!
sorry if this was too long. its just a manic thing.
