Crash on game initialization

Some people are not able to start the game right now. Usually the "Preparing to start game window" pops up and nothing happens. The log looks like this:

timeBeginPeriod( 1 )
GLFW Error 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL
GLFW Error 65542: WGL: The driver does not appear to support OpenGL
Failed to create OpenGL window / context
Caught exception, writing minidump...

Most likely some OpenGL extensions are not supported by your graphics card or driver. There is nothing we can do about that at the time being.

• Try installing the most recent graphics drivers. Sometimes it helps to uninstall the drivers included with the operating system and installing the ones directly from the vendor site (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel ...).
  
• If you have both an integrated on-board graphics chip, and a discrete graphics card, make sure running the game on the discrete graphics card.

Important! Binding of Isaac: Rebirth needs OpenGL 2.0 support, OpenGL 3.0 is recommended. If your graphics card does not support OpenGL 2.0, you are probably out of luck.

Another common reason for the game to crash at startup is that the game files are broken. You can tell the Steam client to automatically check the game files for errors and re-download broken ones. Right click on "The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth" in your games list, select "Properties", "Local Files", "Verify Integrity Of Game Cache..."

The log file should be somewhere like C:\Users\[user]\Documents\My Games\Binding of Isaac Afterbirth if you want to check.

Which Windows is better?

[IdealPoint]

There's nothing wrong with windows 7. You can absolutely run TBOI on windows 7. Most likely your problem is that your laptop is using the integrated graphics chip instead of your HD 7600M card. Sometimes you can force the laptop to use the discrete card by turning off power saving mode or turning on performance mode. Other laptops have programs you use to choose which program will use which GPU. It varies by manufacturer. You may be able to find an article explaining how to use the discrete card if you look on the manufacturer's web site or google how to force discrete gpu with your laptop.
