Yeah, sorry, posted wrong log...
Well, it seems my graphics card is not supported (version1.1.0).
I have ATI Radeon HD 4800, but the driver I get for Win8 can´t be installed. I tried several Display Drivers and Catalyst. It seems, my graphics card doesn´t have supported drivers for Win8.
Any Ideas?
My Thief-Games for example are working fine...

The default Windows 8 drivers do not include OpenGL which is what this game uses. Most others use Direct3D which works fine. You can either try the latest legacy drivers from AMD (Windows 8, Catalyst 13.1) or modded drivers that work with older cards. I suggest you try the AMD driver first.

Thanks, I tried Legacydriver yesterday. Will try the modded one, when I´m back home.

The modded driver is working!
