Since you're running them on different machines, you may need to adjust the wait time in your WaitBrowser or

Tools->Current Project Properties -> Playback

 

We have found that increasing the time between events helps our tests run on more machines.  We still need some Delay or Wait statements but not as many.

    Thanks!
