Abe's Oddysee crash on startup

[Liamaj]

Just download the latest set. That website is specifically for nVidia mobile (laptop) GPUs so don't get them if you don't have one.

Your particular problem Minato93 will likely be sorted when we release the HD PC version. I might be able to help with it now if you can find me an error report in your event viewer (check my earlier post for that).

In regards to the Abe issues. The full total system crash seems like a power or hardware issue, potentially caused by the game referencing something that isn't on your graphics card. The boss is off galavanting around America at the moment on important business, when he gets back I will chat to him about what we can do about problems with the early Abe games.

Same issue here. I start the game, i get the intro music and screen, then it freezes, the music starts looping and my laptop freezes completely.
