Crashing in Siren's Alley

Crashing in Siren's Alley - Woman in Black Tank Top Standing Beside Wall

I've just got round to playing Bioshock 2 and I've been getting through it fairly well, despite the fact that the graphics strain my system.

I've just got through the Pink Pearl in Siren's Alley, and put the code into the door to get to the pumping station. They cut the power and all hell broke loose.

However, before I get the chance to defend myself, the game crashes. It's replicable and I can't seem to get the game to get past that point. It has a brief freeze and then crashes to desktop with no specific error.

I use Windows 8.1, 8GB RAM, i7 3630QM, GeForce 740m.

All my drivers are up to date, the game is up to date, I have tried verifying the integrity of the Steam cache.

What can I do to progress past the point of this crash?
