A couple of the set battles always crash at the same point but there is a fix for this, see:

Otherwise, make sure your video and sound card drivers are up to date as these are usually the problem. Visit the respective hardware manufacturers' sites for these. Windows media player, as already mentioned, can also be a problem.

Please post your full computer specs if none of the above solve the problem for you.
