Forums - PC - 3D GameStudio Users, HELP! Laptop NO LONGER runs A6 or A8. System Requirements?

      My dad's Acer 5730z laptop used to run 3D gamestudio's A6 engine perfectly. Then he got a better laptop and handed me this one. So I formatted his hard drive and reinstalled windows 7 (ultimate edition) and have used windows update to make sure that my windows is up to date. Now I had noticed that gamestudio didn't run properly on some laptops but I had never been able to figure out what the missing component was. Now it's happened to my laptop.        

    The software will install properly and I will be able to call up the model editor, the script editor and the level editor. I can even run the techdemo game that comes with gamestudio. However, after creating a level and clicking the build button, absolutely nothing happens. It doesn't call  up the build dialog box. So since I can't build an instance of the level I just created, I can't run the level. I've posted this in gamestudios official forums but haven't gotten a single reply more than a week after posting. It's driving me crazy because it's worked on this computer before.

I also downloaded A8 and it says (assuming my project is called 'game')
Can't open game_a8.c
Can't compile game_a8.c
Error E3555 - Start up failure ab=ny key to abort
This is the 3rd intel graphics card I've installed on my acer since I formatted it. None of them works with gamestudio. I don't know what I had before formatting that I don't have now. I believe my direct X is 10.
 

 

   The opposite has happened on a friend's laptop. Gamestudio didn't build on his laptop then one day, the build function was suddenly working. He doesn't know what he installed that changed that.
I'm using an Intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3200 @ 2GHZ 2GHZ
