Playstation 1 Game Memory Address Crash

summrum

I am getting crashes with Crash Bandicoot, always at the same point in the game. The Playstation emulator crashes firstly with parts of the on-screen game image disappearing, leaving just the Bandicoot character and an enemy, then to an entirely black screen and no on-screen error message is given. No other games appear to have issues that I have encountered.

My system details:
Pi Model 3 B+ Running at stock (no overclock)
5.1 V, 2.5 A Stontronics Power Supply
RetroPie Version 4.5.1
Built From Pi 2/3 image downloaded from Retropie.org and copied to SD card using Win32DiskImager
USB Devices connected: 2 Playstation 3 USB controllers; 32 GB Sandisk Memory stick
Controlled using Playstation 3 controller wired USB
Using the lr-pcsx-rearmed emulator with scph1001.bin BIOS
ROMs stored on USB stick at retropie-mount\roms\psx\ (when attempting from SD card, ROMs stored at ~retropie\roms\psx)
The Pi gets to a max of ~66 degC during game load; it has ceramic heatsinks which appear to be doing a good job keeping temp from throttling.

The reported memory issue appears to be a smoking gun, but searches have not lead me to any fixes unfortunately. I have tried moving ROMs and BIOS to the SD card and running from there, no difference. I have checked the MD5 checksum for the BIOS, it appears fine. I have tried running without the BIOS, same crash. I have tried re-ripping my disc, which I am pretty sure is not scratched or damaged, yet still getting the crash. BIOS is all lowercase, both name and extension; I have tried renaming to all-caps, no difference.

I hope I have provided enough detailed information, but anything I may have missed please let me know. Any help you could provide would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

I have a RPi2 with RetroPie 4.1, and I've beaten Crash Bandicoot 1 on it a few years ago. Used lr-pcsx-rearmed. Got no crashes on my gameplay. Dunno why it's crashing now, but maybe you should post those informations as an issue on libretro/pcsx_rearmed github repository.

@Solid-One Thank you for your reply. It is interesting that you had no issue with the same game using an earlier version of RetroPie on a Raspberry Pi 2. I have submitted a report at https://github.com/libretro/pcsx_rearmed/issues/350 as you suggested.
