everytime i try to cross a border, my game crashes on me. are there any patches or anything that i can download to stop this? i just uninstalled and reinstalled the game i think the day before yesterday. any advice would be helpful.

First off, is this happening on all four sides of the map? Cause here's what happens in my games.

1. It might be that the game does something wrong when your exiting one of the four sides of the map.
2. It might be that the game crashes while moving from that specific area to the other one.
3. It might be the side that you are entering into the area.

Solution: Go to a different side of the map, exit from that side and enter a area on another side of the one that's not working. If not, just move to a different area first.

Advice: Do not stay in the map that it's having trouble loading for long. I usually find what I call a scramble in the map which can crash the computer if your not careful. This is an area on the map that is scrambled and therefore messes with other features of the area. For instance the screen might move like an inch or so before freezing for about five seconds.

Afterwards, try not to enter the area that much.

And sorry if it's Beregost or a important town or something because that would just suck.

But then again, I might not even be talking about the right thing!

Try cleaning the CD and empty the contents of your cache-folder (it's in the installation folder of Baldur's Gate)
