Do you have WebGL disabled in about:config?

Really even if its enabled in about:config, it could be disabled on your
system.

Please check "about:support" (type that into your URL bar) and be sure
you have SeaMonkey 2.1 or later.

Next scroll to the bottom of the page and under Graphics, you should see
data about WebGL, Direct2D etc., if it is listed as enabled there but
failing to work properly, "we" (Gecko's graphics team) would love to
know about it, and have a bug on file.

And if there is a difference between *us* (SeaMonkey) and Firefox (of
the same Gecko version) in the WebGL renderings, we (SeaMonkey Devs)
want to know about it!


Same as Daniel.

Ok looking at these results I see daunting: "WebGL Renderer Blocked for your graphics driver version. Try updating your graphics driver to version NVIDIA 257.21 or newer."

Which basically means that Mozilla's testing has uncovered stability/security problems with the Version of your NVIDIA driver, and explicitly disables the WebGL features at this time for your driver version.

If possible update your driver, if not you are unfortunately required to wait for either NVIDIA to upgrade your driver, or Core Gecko developers to find a workaround that is both usable and stable.

Seems to be the Windows Vista syndrome... fill the landfills with old
hardware so that you can experience the latest&  greatest.

I don't see how this editorial assists anything.

Further, NVIDIA 257.21 doesn't work on Quadro4 cards.

I would check what driver updates you have available for your NVIDIA card, if there are no newer drivers, I would suggest you contact NVIDIA and request/demand/whatever them to update their driver for your Card. I of course cannot speak for what they can/will do. But Good Luck. (I was lucky enough, as of a few months ago anyway, to have an XP machine with a supported Device Driver -- Have not tested on that machine in a while)
