What graphics card are you using? If you are using a compatible graphics card, you should try to verify the game cache. If that does not work, post your game log and any crash logs from the log folder.

decided I wanted to play HD first encounter after getting it on sale, it installs direct x + visual c++ and then it says loading and then nothing.
I verified and then it downloads this 13mb file and I try to restart the game and still nothing =\

no clue what to do do get it to work

edit: seemed restarting steam got both episodes to work now
