I am having the same problem...i waited forever for it to download last night and to my surprise, when i tried to launch the game through steam, that little game launching steam pop-up (whatever you want to call it) popped up for a split second and went away, but the game did not launch someone plzzzz help!!

I am so frustrated. THIS GAME DOES NOT WORK. If you are reading this and contemplating buying this game then DO NOT. IT IS INCOMPLETE AND BUGGY. Ubisoft have released an unfinished game. When I called their tech suipport they told me that this game will not run on a i7 chip, which really is a lot of bullcrap. This game is not running on many systems. I got it from Steam and have asked for a refund and they have never replied. For all you guys who are getting the same run araound let's organize and show our collective outrage at Ubisoft. They are so quick to take the money and then they deceive us. Post everywhere you can and stop people from buying the game. I stopped two people from buying it at Futureshop already (they were at the counter waiting to pay and I was there with other purchases. I told them about the bugs and they removed it from their purchases). Let's all take this action. It's the only way to stop this nonsense. The hours I have lost trying to follow the suggestions in the forums are lost forever. HOURS MAN. HOURS. GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK

Most reasons for crashings at this time are due to having your audio card dishing out higher than 48000Hz. To change this in vista, go into control panel and click "Sound", Highlight Your Speakers, and click "Properties", then go to the advanced tab and bring down the dropdown menu, select either 16-bit 48000Hz, or 24-bit 48000Hz and your game should run fine.

Have you contacted Steam support? If Ubisoft can't help surely Steam should look into it.

Oh sorry I just re-read, they said it won't work on i7 cpu??? But they're the latest cpus, surely the game would be made to work on as many up-to-date systems as possible as otherwise they're limiting their sales! Although having said that, I hear that Far Cry 2 isn't officially supported on windows 7, so again not very forward thinking by Ubisoft.
