Talking NFS Carbon crashs...not nemore {Problem solved}

I ve a Toshiba A100-237 1.83GHZ core duo laptop with 1.5GB of DDR2 533MHz RAM & a X1600 (0x71C5) GFX card with 256MB dedicated & 256 shared (512MB in all) VRAM. And I neva had any problems with any other games (NFS MW; Quake 4;Doom 3; Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter; Oblivion; F.E.A.R; all the 3 POPs, etc)
But when I tried 2 install NFS Carbon...it kept quiting with the Window saying "I don't ve Direct X & 2 goto MS site & download it" eventhough I ve the latest 9c (4.09.0000.0904).
So I went 2 EA games support & they asked me to copy paste the DSETUP.dll from the DirectX folder on the DVD to my System32 folder so I did (replacing the original without backing it up ) it still didn't work so I also copyed the dsetup32.dll to the same folder (this time I didn't ve 2 replace any file ) and this time the game started 2 install which went very smooth.
Then as clicked Play, I got a blank screen (the 1 U generally get when the game starts with its default resolution) but instead of getting all the EA games startup crap & that chic telling me to do all my racing in the game & Drive safely on the road, I got the blue screen of Death...1st time on my laptop I tried running it through the Desktop shotcut, also tried running it through the Razor no DVD crack by replacing the .exe in the installed folder but the same blue screen when I run it.
So I clicked EAsy Info on the DVD & I got this:

System Overview / Comparison
Your System Results Game Requirements

Operating System Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 2 (Build 2600) Pass Windows XP/2000

System Memory 1535.0 Pass 512.0

Processor Speed 1828.7 Pass 1700 MHz (1.7 GHz)

DirectX Version 9.0c Pass 9.0c

Display Memory 512.0 Pass 64.0

Display Driver 6.14.10.6587 Unknown Compatibility

Sound Device Realtek HD Audio output Pass

Sound Driver 5.10.00.5200 Unknown Compatibility

Could it be that it ain't compateble with my laptop Or do U guys think I can get it 2 work through some patch/safe disc/etc...I ve no experience with it.
And How do I get help from EA game ???
Sorry for the long post but I wanted 2 be clear (m desperate) & thank U for reading (even if U don't know what I could do) But pls pls help me out.
