Are you using Boot Camp or Parallels to run the game? The latter is not really supported.

No more info?

Yes they are up to date, I also uninstalled everything deleted any residual directorys then reinstalled it all. to no avail it is still crashing within the first couple of minutes.

Tried the Omega drivers to no avail.

Infact now it seems to crash even sooner here is the log
