The game-crashing problem occurs with me aswell. I'm not sure, but I think it's some problem with the graphics. It usually happens when I'm in an area with many plants and trees (True Name Meeting i.e.). The game slows down and after a minute or so it crashes. I reduced the graphic level and since then it's fine. It might help with your second problem, but I cant see any relevance with the keyboard problem.
