You got sp2 on your system give me some specs ill see what i can do, some games are pretty iffy not made by the best of developers or tested properly that sounds like one, why would you want to virtually hunt deer in the first place but meh you like what you like.

hmm, right im honestly quite stumped, ill see if someone else can help you with it, never had that error on my pc with a new game before. My usual way to slove probs like that is to reinstall windows but i wouldnt reccomend that unless you are desperate.

Looks like what you're looking for.

Found that here:

From the great metallica, try that and see if it can fix your problem.
