I haven't seen anything like this happen.  I've played for 10-15 hours 
and only had one problem.  This occured when I tried to go off the map 
and encountered the elves and tried to retreat.  The game locked up.  
Besides that the game hasn't had a single problem.  

I might add that the game doesn't functions correctly if you don't set 
it up as the installation instructions say.  You need to have about 1MB 
of Expanded memory.  If you have less or none at all the game will run 
but it crashes and does weird things.
