PlayOnline Viewer has stopped working

Could anyone help me? I have a new laptop that I'm trying to install FFXI on, but I can't get PlayOnline to work. I've tried downloading and running the Vista/Windows 7 compatible version of the POL Viewer, but I still get the "stopped working" message a few seconds after I open it.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

If that's the type of setup I think it is, you're probably having issues with the Optimus Graphics Acceleration. A lot of those switch between Intel and Nvidia, and it causes issues. Have to go in and disable the acceleration or some screwing thing. Think there was some info on it at one of the other FFXI sites like Alla or somehere in the the tech sections.

I've tried playing with the graphics settings a bit, but nothing's seemed to work. Thanks for the advice though :(
