I can't figure out why, but War3 won't run on my laptop. Runs absolutly perfectly on my desktop. When I go to run the game, it loads, plays the intro movie perfectly and right when it should load the main menu, the game crashes. Everything else runs perfectly on my laptop. It's a mobile 1700+ running off the Radeon IGP 320M. Below is the error message.


This application has encountered a critical error:

FATAL ERROR

Program c:\program files\warcraft iii\war3.exe
Exception: 0xC0000005 (Access_Violation) at 001B:0306A6A8

The instruction at '001B:0306A6A8' referenced memory at '001B:0306A6A8'.
The memory could not be 'read'.

Press OK to terminate the application.

None, my first thought was I had some bad memory as this was the first program I installed when I got the laptop. I've had it for a month now and haven't had any problems with anything else.

If anyone has any Ideas please let me know.

My laptop freezes when it plays the movies, but plays the game fine. Maybe you should try and skip the movies?

That's the odd thing, It plays the movies fine. It's the game that crashes.

Thanks for the suggestion though.
