[Alpha Protocol won't start]

I would have loved to post "It worked! Thanks" here, but sadly I can't, as it didn't. Thank anyway, I appreciate you at least responding.

[Alpha Protocol won't start]

I am up to here with Alpha Protocol. I bought it last week, and it simply won't work.

 

What I did:

1. Installed it

2. Tried to activate it, got an error

3. Downloaded patch 1.1 to work around the activation

4. When I tried to start Alpha Protocol, it simply said "Alpha Protocol has stopped working", but even if I said "Close Program" I still have to End Process with Task Manager. The game doesn't even start, it just stays on my desktop and gives me that error. I've tried several things, including re-installing (twice), running both APLauncher.exe and APGame.exe in Windows XP SP 2 compatibility mode, replacing some .dll files (OpenAL.dll and wrap_oal.dll, which is apparently bugged), and all of the above at the same time. I even updated my Sound and Display drivers. I'm fed up with this. And nobody else seems to be having the same problems. And what's worse, SEGA servers are down so I can't even bloody get customer support.
