After I restart my computer the game started to run.

Did this only happen once, or every time you started the game? Did it happen instantly after loading? I don't know what could cause this, but the crash is in our sound manager. Did you have a music player or some other sounds playing when the game crashed?

In 14725:

Improves error handling in sound manager. Fixes some crashes and errors that could occur when OpenAL failed to init properly, fixes #2183, #2345

Fixed the immediate cause of the crash, but I don't know why OpenAL failed to init, or if there's anything we can do about it.
