I have been attempting to run MOHAA for several months now and could not get past the initial setup screen upon startup. The screen would go to a light brown, and occasionally the cursor would still be active. After searching the net for all that time, and trying all the suggestions I had found (including the ones from this site) I could not get it to load.
I was very sure about sys requirements. I am running a Gigabyte GX-7 *** something or other with an AMD Athlon 1800. 512 DDR, and a PNY GeForce 4 TI 4400. I tried everything from BIOS to game patches.
Finally, I decided to purchase a separate sound card, as my MB has "on-board" sound, if you want to call it that. After a smooth installation of a $35 Sound Blaster Live digital card from a computer show and disabling the on board sound in the bios........
.........it worked and successfully played MOHAA with everything MAXED to my hearts content. BTW I also successfully pissed of my wife. Oh Well.
I just wanted to throw this out in case someone else is having the same problem. Happy Hunting.
