Mount and Blade: Warband won't launch

I have just gotten Mount and Blade: Warband off of Steam. Whenever I try to run the game, I see the intro, after that, the screen goes black and the game crashes. I have no idea what happens. I've tried reinstalling, but it doesn't work. I've also tried verifying the game cache, but that doesn't work either. Can I have some help please? I really want to play this game  :sad:
 
I have the same problem, just bought it and tried everything to make it work. Now I am downloading the game from Taleworlds and I will use the Steam CD-key for it. I hope it works.

EDIT: Still doesn't work and I don't know what to do now, because I can't see what the problem is...
EDIT2: I deleted rgl_confiq from MyDocuments/Mount&Blade Warband, and it's working again :smile:

Deleting the rgl_config did nothing for me.  Still does not run.

Version # and last load date? (last time the file was modified) This is the rgl_config, not the rgl_log. (rgl_log is in warband program dir i.e. steam\steamapps\common\mountblade warband\
 
Sorry about the delay.  I believe my last play date was 4/18 or 4/17.  The last load date says today today though.  I cant find find what version I had.  I think it was the latest.  I was playing with Floris mod but when I was looking for my version I saw that is was not in my Modules folder any more. I am running Windows 7 Home Premium

I never get that menu.  It says preparing to load Mount and Blade but never loads it. I said earlier that my mod Floris disappeared but i was wrong. It is still in the folder.
 
I verified the game through Steam already.  I will try your link and run without Steam in the background.  Thanks again for everyone's help.
 
Plz can u help me???

I recently bought the collection of Mount And Blade Warband mainly, BUT DOES NOT WORK! Pass the intro video and the screen turns black and I get a message that windows has encountered an error and exit the program.

Update Drivers, DirectX update, I tried in compatibility mode ..... nothing! and most strange is that fire and sword Whit walks me correctly, without error (and needless to say the most current games run without any problems)

Hopefully get some response is disappointing and frustrating that, just buy the collection for Warband, specifically for the mods that exist for and this suggests that waste my money.

Checking the event viewer, I found this "error" when the game system fails

Mb_warband.exe Faulting application, version 1.0.0.0, time stamp 0x4f8fea51, Faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6001.18538, time stamp 0x4cb733dc, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x0004308e, process id 0x5bc, start time of the application 0x01cd209976790460.

THANKS!
