Fatal Error: Couldn't initialize graphics engine.

[Kelgann]

Well I just bought Titan Quest: Immortal throne, and I can't run it due to this error.

"Fatal Error: Couldn't initialize graphics engine."

I searched and searched, but it looks like everyone else with this problem has integrated graphics. I don't use integrated graphics, because I have a good video card. In those threads, people recommended some things, which I did.

Ive:
-Updated Drivers
-Reinstalled DirectX
-Uninstalled and reinstalled the normal game and expansion several times to no effect

I also tried running the program in compatibility mode and as an administrator, with no effect.

System Specs:

Nvidia 8800 GTS
Intel Core 2 Duo 3.0 Ghz
4gb ram
Vista 32 bit
