As Gear Change says, try increasing the heapsize to at least half your memory. It's a startup option for the game which you set from within Steam.

And it still dosn't work?! have you tried that heapsize option? i don't suppose it could be a hardware fault? try running some stress tests, like the 3dmark program or something, it should be able to narrow down which part is stuggling.
