Gothic IV Demo wont start?

Any1 else had problems with Gothic IV demo off steam? I can't get it to start.

been having that problem for days..i pretty much gave up.lawlessx

Rabble, rabble rabble!

Just played the demo on the 360, graphics were horrible and the voice acting is bad, but over all seemed like a fun rpg, I may pick it up for the pc, but the voice acting is so bad it could ruin the game.

I downloaded the steam version after reading this thread, I had no problems running it, it just ran like any other stam game. The game looks amazing I cant even believe its the same game after playing the 360 version. People were complaining about performance, I am running it maxxed and it runs great. I am still shocked at the graphical difference.

Edit: after playing the pc version this is a must buy for me. It plays like a whole different game then the crappy console version. I think the combat is really fun and aslong as it has good loot, Im game. I ama very shallow gamer it seems, now that the visuals are near crysis level it is easier to put up with the bad voice acting :P

I had the same problem. But then I found this odd suggestion and it worked. Here's what he wrote:

Change sound frequency to 48000 HZ in Windows control panel sound properties. Not sure why this works but it did for me...

Control Panel - > Hardware and Sound - > Sound - > Right click your default sound device - > select properties - > click on the advanced tab - > set the frequency to 48000 HZ ... Click apply... Demo should load ...
