Most common problems
Crash with weird sound
On some systems with Windows XP and a Creative SoundBlaster sound card, there may be occasional sound corruption. The user will hear a continuous white noise, and the game will freeze and eventually restart the computer. The solution for this bug is to set the sound card hardware acceleration to "None", which can be done in Control Panel → Sounds And Audio Devices → Audio tab → "Advanced" in "Sound Playback" section → Performance, and then disable hardware acceleration (move the slider to "none").
