Help with gaming on my laptop

I want help trying to run warcraft 3 on my laptop because i have successfully installed the game and when i try to go to Battle.Net it downloads the updates and then it says restart warcraft 3 to apply the upgrades and when i restart it, it says "An Error Occurred When Applying the Upgrades". This only seems to be a problem on my laptop and not my other desktop computers.

Please Help.

Tell us the laptop brand and model, or the configuration. The problem is usuall that Warcraft 3 won't work on many laptops... due to memory, audio capabilities, of video graphics hardware or drivers.

The specs on your laptop are good (for a laptop). Make sure your are fully updated to Vista SP1 and check on Toshibas support for any updated Vista drivers

Yes we are talking about Toshiba Vista updates and Windows Vista updates not Warcraft 3 updates until the other updates are completed. Do the Windows Vista updates first
