not another whine post cuz it doesn’t work but i solved my issue 
i am very happy about it ^^
brink doesn’t start and only error box of windows appears “stopped working blabla” after the bethesda/splashdamage logo:
there are some other things which i tried like disable triple buffer in driver, update to newest nvidia/ati driver (myself got nvidia gtx 470), reinstall it etc. … nothing worked so far
BUT! … got a creative soundcard and a disable soundcard so try this
deactive in the hardware manager your current soundcard:
- start button
- computer rightclick
- properties
- hardware manager (first entry)
- rightclick on ur soundcard “deactive” … NOT deinstall
- reboot
- launch steam and the game … maybe it works
and when the game runs, create a character … active your soundcard again … after that the game should start propably with activated soundcard
maybe you got 2 speaker systems like me, surround set and headset << disabled only surround set in tray (rightclick on the speaker button) and it worked, too
i hope that will works for some of u
