Hi, laptops are generally not the best for gaming. There are plenty of issues with games not running on laptops and stuff. I know, I have one myself and have heard lots of my friends crib about it.
 
u dloaded the whole game on the laptop or did u pick up the installation folder from other comp to this... ?
 
I downloaded the game direcltly from Steam..

Edit--Its working now..:)The problem was bcoz of the direct X.I updated the Aug version of dx n it started...but now i have a dif problem..The game runs as 4:3 screen and the right one third of the screen is not used atall and whenever i try to change the resolution of the game it hangs...van someone hep me with it..
