Can't init the graphics card Rip.  I see you are running teh 45.23 NVidia drivers.

Try the 41.09 drivers or 30.82.  Make sure you clean the old driver out before installing the new one.

I was running older drivers for the same card (41.00 series i think) and got the same message.  Upgraded to the latest and same problem.

Rip, try the beta again a couple of times.  I had the same error and the game started working for me without changing anything on my system.
