Provide a savefile as close to the crash as possible. Not a savestate, but a save file, .gci file from the memory card or memory card folder if you're using that feature.

Also, try using single core; unknown pointers can happen on GPU desyncs with bounding box effects.

Could you try using the latest master build (4.0-7209 at the time of writing) and see if that fixes it? Single or Dual Core alike, I am not getting a pointer crash with latest master after getting one stone key and going through the door to get the second one.

Specs are:

Windows 7 Pro x64
AMD Athlon II x2 B24
ASUS Radeon R7 240

No problem. This can be marked invalid then due to out of date version.

There is no reason upgrading should have fixed it, but okay.
