Unable to initiate Riven from DVD. I have Mac Cube with PowerLogix CPU Upgrade, Running Mac OS X 10.5.8

Asked by David R. Hawkins, Jr.

I have downloaded Riven X successfully, and used it to transfer the Riven DVD to my hard drive. When I initiate Riven X I have a blank window, with the Riven cursor.

I apologize for the delay to answer you. Most likely, your computer's video card does not support functionality required by Riven X to render, which currently leads to a black window. I will either be adding support for older GPU hardware in the final version, or provide a helpful error message stating that the computer does not meet the minimum requirements.

Thanks very much for your attention. We are hopeful to be able to use
Riven. Several of my patients are deeply invested in it.
