Westfields Rock On Posted March 12, 2003 Author Posted March 12, 2003 howdy again. I try to run a game but it said it cannot initialise OpenGL. I take it i require the driver. Mmmmmmmmmm the fujitsu siemens website is all complicated and confused me. Can anyone whos really clever at PC work help me please? Quote
Westfields Rock On Posted March 12, 2003 Author Posted March 12, 2003 cheers dude mais i have XP and the dont do one for it. Quote
adhawkins Posted March 13, 2003 Posted March 13, 2003 What game is it you can't play then? Do you have the latest drivers for your graphics card installed? A bit of research seems to show that XP already has OpenGL. I don't remember ever installing it on my machine (running XP), and haven't found a game that doesn't work yet. Andy Quote
brianm Posted March 15, 2003 Posted March 15, 2003 Just noticed this.......can't believe that Wrox and "PC" are in same sentence....... AAaahh - PC as in compooter, not politically correct........well thats (a little) more believable now.... Or Police Constable, Quote
Westfields Rock On Posted March 15, 2003 Author Posted March 15, 2003 I cant play medal of honour I havent got the drivers due to the fact i made my pc FUBAR Quote
JonnyBoy Posted March 15, 2003 Posted March 15, 2003 fujitsu siemens ah...prebuilt computers pah...waste of everybodys time. try the rescue disk? is it onboard vga and sound? if agp gfx, is agp set correctly in bios? have you looked an sites like planet medal of honour for faq's. have you patched the game to the latest version? so many possibilities. is there no 'minigl' www.mohaa.com forum adresses the opengl issue...but i'll be ####*d if i'm gonna look for you Quote
Westfields Rock On Posted March 15, 2003 Author Posted March 15, 2003 aye, #### prebuilt thingy. Wanted to build my own for less but lack of time Onboard dealies, theres no room for a f*****n graphics card (Want Ge Force 4) to fit in this tiny thing!!! not on recovery disk ill check BIOS. Quote
BobM Posted March 15, 2003 Posted March 15, 2003 aye, #### prebuilt thingy. Wanted to build my own for less but lack of time I usually build my own but these days if you find the right deal you can buy a package for quite a bit less than the cost of the bits IIRC last one I bought was P4 1800Mhz, 256Mb, 40Gb, DVD, CDR, GeForce 2, WinXP for ~£700.

JonnyBoy Posted March 15, 2003 Posted March 15, 2003 true. mines cost ~900 so far an equivalent spec pc from the shops would be about 1500 at the time....plus i have absolutely no generic components and it is well futureproofed too!! It was also very intereting and suprisingly easy. Quote
Westfields Rock On Posted March 16, 2003 Author Posted March 16, 2003 mmmmmmmmmmmm. ive checked in BIOS and increased the apeture of the AGP to 256 no change. Ive also noticed since my stupidity episode that when playing videos in full screen mode they jump. No a smooth continuing picture Quote
