I just built a new computer and I tried to install the demo for Jedi Outcast on it. It installed just fine, but when I try to run it it gives me this error message:

This is really ticking me off. Everywhere I have looked has said to update your video drivers, but I have already done this! I have been running Windows 7 RC and I thought that might be the problem, but I tried it on my old XP and I got the same thing. Please help me.

System Specs:

AMD Athlon 64 X2 3.2 Ghz
Asus M3A76-CM motherboard
4 Gigs DDR2 ram
Windows 7 RC
