Copy and pasted right out of the wow forums. (this seems to be a prevalent problme on laptops). Try this:

1.) Find the shortcut you use to start the game.
2.) Right-click on it and select Properties
3.) Find the Target field, it should say something along the lines of:
"C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe" (quotations included)
4.) Add a parameter to the end of the string to switch over to OpenGL mode. Like this:
"C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WoW.exe" -opengl (make sure you add the -opengl part OUTSIDE the quotations)
5.) Give the game another try.

That fixed it for me. If it doesn't work, make sure you have all your drivers updated to rulle that out as a possibility.
