WebGL not working for same spec system in chrome. How to fix?

Using info from chrome://gpu and chrome://version

Both on Chrome version: 35.0.1916.153 (Official Build 274914) m Both using an Nvidia 670 GTX

My driver: 9.18.13.3523

His driver: 9.18.13.4043

My webGL works perfectly, and my driver is slightly behind his. His webGL doesn't work even though in the settings it says all hardware accelerated, webGL enabled etc.

When he goes on page with webGL things they don't work - he can't see them just like you wouldn't see them with old browsers.

Why is this happening? How to diagnose/fix?

Most likely Google has blacklisted the graphics driver because of the bugs.

You need to find out how start Chrome so that it ignores GPU blacklist. On some system it is this command line:

  google-chrome --enable-webgl --ignore-gpu-blacklist

... and if it still doesn't work, the relevant console output etc. is needed.
