Well, to be honest here, I did try almost everything from defragging the hard drive to switching the compatibility modes and it never worked for me for problematic games (and yes, including updating both my sound drivers and graphics drivers too). None of them work for the Titan Quest demo.

Furthermore, I also hate to have to turn down the DirectX sound acceleration but what was I to do? I remember reading the patch notes for Hitman: Blood Money and they addressed that crash issue by asking users to lower the DirectX sound acceleration and its been proven to work (I tried it myself and it works fine). Upon using this very same trick on Titan Quest, it works.

That's the one thing that really irritates me. I've played very high-end games on my mid-range PC like Doom 3, Half-Life 2, FEAR and Oblivion and none of those games created any problems for me.
