You can either slow down your computer using a slowdown program (do a search for MoSlo on Google), or you can just keep picking it up, walking as far as you can until it explodes, hitting retry, and continuing this way until you're trying to go. (I forget where that is... crypt door or something?)
I had the same problem with the firecracker on my windows only version when running it on xp. MoSlo would probably have worked, but the free version is only for DOS and the version that slows windows is $23. I used Cpukiller3 and it worked great. It can be downloaded here: http://www.cpukiller.com/download.html
