We have received a number of comments about Mob Rule crasing on
certain HP computers. This was originally believed to be a video
problem but after extensive testing it has been found to lie with
the sound card used in some HP machines. The following information
was supplied by Absolute Quality after carrying out exhaustive tests.
Mob Rule was run on an HP
Pavilion 6475Z with an ATI Rage Pro
and Master Riptide Sound Card.
When running the game on the computer unaltered in it's retail state
the game had several problems that seemed to point to video card
trouble.
The video card drivers were updated but there was still some corruption
on screen and a few random crashes.
As there was still a problem it was decided that the sound card
drivers needed updating as it is known that Riptide's original drivers
can cause problems - this upgrade can be obtained from HP's web
site.
Doing the sound card driver upgrade did not solve the problem in
itself. A further change was required and that was to lower
the audio acceleration by one notch. After this the game
works fine.
If
you are still having problems with this machine setup then please
email with as much detail as possible.
