Have you installed the DirectX runtime?

(We are going to ship the relevant bits from it with FF4, but for now you still have to)

From the previous build:

WebGL Renderer TransGaming Inc. -- ANGLE -- OpenGL ES 2.0 (git-devel Jan 29 2011 04:08:46)

So, yes. I think DirectX is installed by default on Windows 7.
