Answer 1

It might be helpful if you listed you system specs.

The most likely cause is there's something wrong with your graphics card. Take the side of your computer and see if you can spot anything wrong with it, or another component. Then do the same whilst trying to start the game, and see if you notice anything odd happening then. Maybe just try updating some of your hardware anyway.

Check on steam to make sure you meet the minimum requirements too.

And if you want a link to drivers, you might want to tell us your specs, like i said. :P
