Error when start updragonknight8703/09/2009 - 04:33

The error when starting the exe:
"AppName: worldofgoo.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: msvcr80.dll
ModVer: 8.0.50727.3053 Offset: 00008aa0"

Previously this game worked merely a week ago, and now i go back to play it and bang.. it's stopped working.  I bought it off steam perhaps a week ago. 

Hardware specifications?
Nvidia 8800 GTX i believe
duel core processor
yada yada yada...
I'm 100% sure it's not the hardware.  As the game ran perfectly before. 

Software specifications:
Windows XP
I'm a games programmer myself, so i've got the newest release of direct X, all my drivers are up to date as well for the graphics card.

Second time running it and bang it's encountered an error.

Side Info:
A black screen appears just on start up then the error gets thrown up.

Any ideas?
