Game crashes while trying to play

[customx5]

I've been playing the game since release fine up until today, I've been playing today fine until i stopped playing and came back to try and play some more about 4 hrs later i try and double click the icon and this thing generates a percentage of 100% and says i got a bug. no matter what i do i cant get into the game. like i said i've been playing fine before so its not my drivers or anything.

You might want to post the HP log than.

Glad you fixed it, Open AL that we use can be strange at times. If you want sound hardware (for surround sound) you can try updating your sound card drivers.
