What problem it might be?

Hi m8s,

Recently I installed Windows 7 V7600 and the latest DX SDK. But when I run the web published game, it returned an error and crashed IE8 after I clicked the OK button. There was no problem to run the game .exe directly.

Anyone know what problem it might be?

Thanks.

No. But I will have a try. It's very hard to find the newest nvidia driver for laptop video card. :(

I can't remember for sure but didn't nvidia start supporting laptop cards? Although I guess they might be slower about it than the desktop versions.

Yes, nvidia started supporting laptop cards, but there are exceptions. nvidia said:

The following notebooks are not supported in this release:

............
Sony VAIO notebooks (please contact the notebook OEM for driver support for these notebooks)
............

my laptop is sony vaio, so I cound't get the lastest driver.

btw, if I didn't launch the game from the browser, it ran good. Is it still the problem of video card driver?

Yes. I can run the game by clicking the .exe. But if I run it in browser, it crashed.
