Grimrock

and now its running... maybe there was a directx component missing that the compatibility test installed...
anyway, thanks for all your help!
consider this one solved!

yes, the compatibility test runs on my puter, it shows a screen that says "legend of grimrock 2 coming oct. 15" and has an island in the background, but that is all it does... if there is more to it then maybe my system isnt compatible? here is the copy/paste from that .log file as well: =...

Hi! i recently purchased your game Legend of Grimrock 2 through steam, and the game simply wont launch. all my drivers are up to date, and my puter meets the requirements (i73930k, gtx650ti, 16gb ram,lots of hdd, win7 64bit). the game starts to load, my cursor shows "busy" for about 10 sec...
