Answer 1

I had this error when I was providing the path to chrome.exe as the system property - it went away when I was using chromedriver.exe as downloaded from here: https://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/list

This means that winsat validation failed. Winsat is a tool that checks out windows. If it fails, normally this indicates that something is wrong with your system (probably a driver).

In the above case, I would go with the display adapter driver, so try to update it via the Windows Update.

To run winsat yourself, you can run 'winsat formal' from the command line. Then you can look for suspicious output (if you have 0 F/S performance in the direct3d, then this is not fine :-))

Based on the problematic output, you can see what is wrong in the system (in the above example, the display adapter was found as a standard VGA, and a simple update, fixed the error made chrome/selenium).
