Crashing on load - Aktinos - 04-15-2011

Hey, just downloaded the game, but I haven't been able to get it to work as of yet, as it keeps crashing after I hit launch game. I've been through the trouble shooting post but none of those options have helped me out. It's not recognising my video card.

The setup I am trying to run the game on is... Win XP 32 bit, Intel i5, Radeon HD 5700.

I downloaded it through steam (I uninstalled and redownloaded it to see if that helped)
I've updated my video drivers to the latest ones available.
My desktop color depth is 32
The only display driver showing in the device manager is the radeon card.
I've checked to make sure that the PCI is the primary adaptor in BIOS.

Anyway, kinda out of ideas on what to do next.

Attached is the HPL, it's at 600 x 480 because I tried changing the resolution to see if that would change anything.

Nothing? I am still unable to get it to run.

Tried validating files?
Steam usually offers that when you right click on the game(there might be other settings).

If that does'nt work i'd suggest trying out the Steam forum, the Steam people should know how to opperate their program better than I.
