How to run OpenGL 2.0 for XP?
My system runs on Win XP SP2.
Recently I test run a utility "GPU Caps Viewer" ( website at www.ozone3d.net/gpu_caps_viewer ) and the utility tells me that the tests need OpenGL 2.0 I have search the Net for information regarding OpenGL 2.0, hoping to download a "patch" or something that can upgrade my system to OpenGL 2.0. Perhaps it's because I'm not that bright, or perhaps I'm just unlucky, my searches turned out nothing. So here I am, asking for help. Can anyone tell me how I can upgrade my Win XP SP2 to run OpenGL 2.0 programs, please? Thank you all in advance !! |

Contact the manufacturer of your video card to obtain the most recent WinXP-specific drivers. Programs that Require OpenGL Support May Not Run in Windows XP http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;285912 -- Bruce Chambers Help us help you: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/555375 They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. ~Benjamin Franklin Many people would rather die than think; in fact, most do. ~Bertrand Russell The philosopher has never killed any priests, whereas the priest has killed a great many philosophers. ~ Denis Diderot |

A left over DLL from an Asus video card install, prevented full functionality. (ATKGL32.dll). http://forums.nvidia.com/lofiversion...hp?t23491.html Paul |
