Update
NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT (x2) 190.62 Your PC currently has the latest driver installed for your GPU. No driver update is necessary at this time.[/quote] Ill try the previous nvidia drivers for windows 7
W7 is beta. Get vista, the last stable hybrid kernel (NT) Windows. Don't listen to people saying that Vista sucks. 90% of them probably never used it. It has DX10 just like Windows 7.
[i]Don't forget to SP2 it, son.[/i]

Also crashing BEFORE startup doesn't sound like a driver issue, you drones. Driver issues are BSOD's or Critical Errors popping up in the middle of the game, usually.

are you trolling or just retarded
RELEASE CANDIDATE should give it away
[editline]02:31AM[/editline]
and it's ABOUT to be released, mongoloid
It's very close to release (Tthe final builds have already been made and sent out), and the fact that he's using Windows 7 should not be relevant.
My friend had the same problem but his source games wouldnt start up and he would get the same error, he ended up reinstalling windows
Specs and temps please.

This isn't relevant. Go read the Windows 7 megathread, source games work perfectly on 7. It's a problem specific to his computer, not the OS.
My Spec is this:
Amd Athlon x2 6000+ 3Ghz
3Gb DDR2
Sli 9600gt x2
500gb Seagate
Windows 7 RC1
I could try reinstalling windows but compwhizii said that 7 isnt relavant to this error, Ill post temps later
