Hey everybody!
I've got a little problem with my RBR. Every time i start it, it works for a little while and then suddenly it freezes and brakes down (mostly in the middle or beginning of a stage).
I think, i've got the latest drivers, reinstalled it several times. I don't know what to do.
Can somebody help me please?

when describing a problem you may take some time to describe your pc as well. Cpu, graphic card, audio card, ram as well as operating system and also remember to say if you always had these problems or RBR worked without issues in the past on your pc. You know, there are so many possible hardware and software combinations and problems could be specific for some components and software.

RBR has many issues with fancy sound cards Confused How is the sound in the when it isn't down? Did you try to update your SC drivers too? Try to run RBR with your mobo media Wink

The sound freezes too and starts to play the same sound again and again. I have to say that the game worked with the sound card very well, before i had this strange issue

Man, the same happened here, but with Dirt, It would freeze but after 30 sec it would keep going... how long did you wait before the reset?

BTW did you updated your SC drivers or tried to play without it? Wink

OK, this is killing my nerves! I tried to play with my onboard sound and anything changed at all!!! I had some situations with my audigy, where the game freezed for some seconds and suddenly it moved on, but then i had many many graphical errors...
Anyway, playing with the onboard sound or with my audigy doesn't work out.

Did you try to deactivate sound on RBR settings? I mean in the configuration window not in RBR. Just to see if it's a problem with the sound or is related to other hardware\software components on your pc. Also, did this situation started with the hardware upgrade you made or was it consequent to some upgrade in your drivers, you know, sometimes new drivers just bring new problems.

I tried to deactivate sound in the RichardBurnsRally.ini, but the funny thing is, that it played the sound in the game like i've changed nothing. Am I on Punk'd ???
The situation is this, upgraded my hardware and played the game without errors. After some time i had to reinstall my windows and at that time the game didn't work anymore. So i updated my drivers, but i can't tell you if i installed newer drivers than before.

I guess I have the same problem here. The game crashes after 30 secs to 5 mins and crashes 95% of the time which makes the game unplayable. But later I figured out that just before the game crashes there is a hissing sound and that made think it was a sound related problem. I made some research and found out that lowering sound acceleration slider to basic acceleration in dxdiag options fixes the problem. It is very annoying to that everytime though.
I hope it helps.
