Vista - NFS - Carbon

I have recently purchased NFS carbon and tried to install to my laptop.
Installation goes smooth as well as the latest update. When I run the game
it gets just past first loading sequence and then dies.... I am running a
gforce go 6150 with 128mb dedicated and 256mb shared. OS is vista
basic(came with the top and haven't had chance to download XP and Linux
drivers).
? ? ?

right click the game icon, choose properties and try it in win98/me
compatability mode. shoud run ok with the dvd version. dunno if its the
electronic download version. good luck

Thank you so much man, you made my night.
I had tried all compatibility modes except win98/me. Who would have
thought. I almost downloaded a 120mb graphic driver.

Thanks again.
