I got the demo installed fine, without compatibility mode, and it works. But I bought the full game, and installed. When I startup the game by either going to the program files .exe or desktop icon, it crashes. I tried in compatibility mode for both XP and Vista, still get this error no matter with settings.

I've actually tried running it in 7,8, and about to on Vista. The screenshot was 7. Windows 8 didn't work when I installed it, and I'm currently installing it on Vista to see if it'll work there.

Installed in Vista, no problems. Guess it isn't meant to be in 7 and up. Strange that compatibility mode didn't work, as it's worked for me always before.
