Answer

There is a thread on the steam forums for Vista x64 issues, so this may apply to you. These are the possible solutions they came up with:

• If you have a soundblaster card then disable it and try and run sound either through another soundcard or motherboard integrated sound.
• Create a new file in the worms folder named Local.cfg . Create this file within notepad and then just save it as that name. The file should just contain the following "/nosound".
• Verify the game cache, there may have been an issue with your download. Doing this will check for errors and redownload any files that are corrupt or missing.
