I've read a lot of posts and I've done a bit of trouble shooting. Right now I have a fresh install of my game. I can play Witcher 2 with no problems but I can't launch witcher.exe with any success. I get an error that says The Witcher has stopped working. I'm using Vista 32 bit, 4gb ram, 512mb memory on my 3870, e6600. My specs are dated, but plenty for this game. I've included some of the error.txt that I get inside of the system folder when it crashes/fails to launch. Any help that can not be "searched" for would be greatly apprecitated. I've exhausted myself with what I've found on google, here in the forums, and over at cd projekt red.

Here's the important bits of the error text:
