I have the exact same problem. What sort of system are you running? Maybe there are some common threads between our two systems that may shed some light on the problem. Hopefully.

Re: Questions? Need help? Look here
Addendum to my earlier post: added system spec: motherboard is AOpen AK79D-400 with bios R1.04 (date is August 13th).
Don't know if that means anything.

GeForce 4200 TI w/64MB RAM & 44.03 Nvidia drivers
Creative Audigy (latest driver)

Someone else was having trouble, then updated from the 44.03 drivers. Nvidia's current ones are 45.23. Of course, during the beta, I was using the 44.03 (before the 45's came out) just fine.

Re: Questions? Need help? Look here
Well, that is a slight improvement. If you cannot launch the game, try changing options in the settings menu, or other things. More detail on my first post.
And I thought DX was supposed to take care of all these issues...
Some people have had success by renaming the sounds folder, something wrong with soundcards or something.
