I don't know about the demo, but the retail version of Thief: The Dark Project with the latest official patch 1.33 applied works fine on Radeon cards. Same for Thief Gold.

Used patch with full version of game still gives me same error. Is this maybe about directx version?

No idea, I've never seen anything like that to be honest.

If it helps, back when I was testing Thief 1 on my Radeon 9250, I was using Catalyst 6.2 drivers and DirectX 9.0c. Everything rendered correctly.
