OpenGL Call of Duty Problem-ATI Rage

[taybrush]

I am running a Dell OptiPlex G1, PIII, 256 K, Windows 98, with an ATI Rage Pro Turbo AGP 2X. I get this message when I run Call of Duty:
Could not load OpenGL. Make sure you have the latest drivers from the manufacturers website.

Sorry to say that, but your system doesnt even come close to the minimum system requirements (especially your 3d card).

You got a 600Mhz P3 with an 4MB 3d card and no hardware TnL.

Sorry.

I get a slightly different error, but I got over some of the requirements. I have a 1 GhZ and a 16MB video card but it asks me to update video drivers which I did but I get the same error? Please help

What about ATI Xpert2000 with 32 Mb of RAM? Where can I learn if the card has HW T&L?

It doesn't. Integrated Transformation, Clipping and Lighting (T&L) started with the 7xxx series.

That's why the 7xxx series is supported and the older Rage 128 chips (like yours) are not.

Seriously, for $29 at pricewatch.com, you can have a card that's at least twice the power of that old Xpert2000.
