Could Not Opengl Subsystem

i'm having the same problem. here's wat happened. b4 my computer crashed, i could play opengl games (q3 engine based) like star wars jedi knight 2: outcast, quake 3, medal of honor, etc. i was playing these on winxp, i remember when i upgraded to winxp i couldn't play opengl games. i did something but i forgot, all i can remember that far back was i downloaded the latest drives for my video card (nvidia) and got myself a copy of gldirect software, i did something that made the opengl games work with winxp. now my computer crashed, i fixed it, re-installed xp and i'm back to that problem. i can't run mohaa (medal of honor: allied assualt), gives me that opengl problem, the thing is, it gets to the main menu, then when i go to missions, and click on a mission for it to load, it loads like 1% and then crashes back to desktop. i've tried messing with the gldirect settings, no effect. can anyone be kind enough to help me, please :( ? i've got the latest nvidia drivers (53.something), and gldirect. thanks for any help guys.

Theres a website where you can find actual OpenGL drivers I think.

Give me 10 minutes.

http://www.opengl.org/applications/installing.html#9

Get OpenGL 1.5 from there (I think its 1.5) and then try.

btw.... try older drivers....what vid card you have?

it's a nvidia geforce2 mx 100/200 32 mb (ya, it sucks but it runs any games that use quake 3 engine perfectly and smoothly at their highest settings, i even got doom 3 to work :D ). i'll get the opengl drivers and let you know if they worked, and maybe your right, maybe older v/c drivers will work, i'll give it a shot. anyone know where to download older nvidia drivers at? and if so, which ones? i appreciate all the help you guys, thank you, and have a happy new year, i know i will :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

yea.... i still use 44.03 drivers with my mx440 and they run like a charm.... havent got doom3 to run yet though lol....

44.03? ill give it a try, thanks. doom3 can be a pain to run, make sure your virtual memory page is high, and tweak the cfg like a muthafu**a! it took me a days worth of tweaking before i got it to run smoothly (and by smoothly i mean 8 fps average, 2-3 fps while shooting, good thing is it never crashed or went to 0 fps or froze at any point in the game :D ). but i dont have doom3 anymore, 3 reasons: 1) couldnt sleep at night knowing the horrors that were on my computer (ironically, the computer was next to my bed) 2) too much system resources eaten up 3) id rather wait for the finished product rather than this alpha :)

EDIT: i just realized how much of a contribution ID and John Carmack have given and done for the gaming world, shit, without them, we would still be a couple years behind with our duke nukem 3d games B) . good old ID!

yeps....

the thing about doom 3 is that it got stuck loading the console.... oh well nevermind i have to try more.... but im gonna do it when i come back :D

:D good luck!

Here's a link for getting some drivers, vid card or otherwise.

http://www.driverguide.com/

Just sign up (free), login, and start searching. Check for OpenGL while yer there, hell, you might get lucky!

If you have no luck there, try http://www.google.com of course. There's plenty of sites to choose from.
