Faulty download I think. Can you try downloading it again. In addition do you have the latest NVIDIA video loaded?

Well if it was physx, it would normally tell you. Your drivers up to date? Try upating your directx? Verify the integrity of game files in Steam? Try Post #10 too: http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1193220 DO NOT redownload Metro, just verify game integrity files, quicker, and same thing.

If all other games run fine then it is more than likely a game related problem so try my previously suggested advice.

You are getting same exception code as people in the forum I linked to, read through the steam forum link I provided and try those fixes.
I think when you went to lauch the game for the first time and it goes through 1-4 extra install steps of DX, VC Distrib, and Physx, there must've been a problem with one of those installs.

I'll move this to the gaming forum to see if there are more ideas. Make sure you have the latest Direct X update installed.

There is no need to install Windows 7 SP1 to run Metro2033, you are misreading the posts... You must allow the game to install and its components, it is NOT trying to install SP1. This file --> vcredist_x86_sp1_atl_4053.exe Updates the Microsoft Visual C++ library -only- (Not the OS) and is completly safe. If you do not update the VC library, you will NOT be playing metro2033 as it is required.

---Ebednar11 has already posted the link at Steam containing the information--- Step 1. Turn your steam off and disable auto-start. Step 2. Go to Metro 2033 install folder which should be located in Steam\steamapps\common\metro 2033\ find a folder named "install" and open it (Steam\steamapps\common\metro 2033\install) Step 3. reinstall the installer named "vcredist_x86_sp1_atl_4053.exe" Find the installer in Step3 and run it from its location "inside" your Metro2033 install *NOTE: Many games install different VC libraries. There are service packs and security updates for just about all of them. After installing -any- VC with a game or app, you need to go to windows update and get any and all updates for the version of VC you just installed. Failure to install the updates and security patches will leave your your computer exposed to threats.... If you dont want to install Win7 SP1, simply "hide" that update.. then you dont have to worry about it and can continue to get all your needed security patches and updates. Running your Win7 install without the updated and current patches-- is much worse for your computer than installing SP1
