OpenGL missing extensions, but confirmed good video card and drivers

[Shadowplay]

Hi there, I'm having some real trouble with OpenGL on 1 of 2 new, identical systems I just built. I was hoping someone here could help me troubleshoot and pin down the cause of my troubles

Here's the hardware for both systems:
CPU: AMD Athlon64 3500+ AM2
Motherboard: MSI nForce 550 AM2 board
RAM: 512mb x 2 DDR2-667 matched pair
Video: PNY Geforce 7600GT
OS: XP Home

On system has no problems, but the other has OpenGL issues. Direct3D works flawlessly however. Both video cards work in the 1st system, both fail in the same manner in the 2nd system. Have uninstalled/reinstalled video and motherboard drivers numerous times, on the problem box with no change. Flashed the BIOS to the latest version with no change either.

I downloaded this OpenGL extension viewer: http://www.realtech-vr.com/glview/index.html
It said a BUNCH of extensions had entry points, but were missing. The test utility passes only the first 2 out of 7 tests. Again, same results for both video cards.

At this point it just doesn't seem like a driver issue and I suspect it's a flaky motherboard (whether PCI-e slot or something else.) Does that sound like the most likely culprit? Just seems odd though that Direct3D works so well if there's a hardware problem outside the video card. If the slot is flaky I would expect to see more widespread problems.

Any advice you can offer is much appreciated. Thanks for your time here!

What problems wth OpenGL do you have exacly? Can you run OpenGL games or applications? What driver do use use etc.

I'm running the latest official drivers from nvidia, forceware v91.31 dated June 23rd.

Problem exactly is that I cannot run any current OpenGL game at all.

For example, Saga of Ryzom in OpenGL mode errors on loading with this message:
"Missing Required GL extension: GL_ARB_multitexture. Update your driver."

GLinfo2.exe shows this: "OpenGL version €Ný" - looks pretty unhealthy, but driver updates can't seem to fix it.

OpenGL Extensions Viewer testing passes these 2 tests:
1.1 (texturing)
1.2 (locked arrays)

And fails these remaining tests:
1.3 (multitexture)
1.4 (vertex program)
1.5 (vertex objects)
2.0 (shading language)
2.0 full (deferred rendering)

The report tab of the extensions viewer shows the following:

That's probably more info than you wanted, but I figure better to provide everything I can find.

Do you use 16bit color quality?

[Shadowplay]

Normally I run in 32 bit, but in testing I've tried 32, 16 and even 8 bit.

Also, I've tried these resolutions: 800x600, 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1600x1200.

Nothing helps that I've found so far.

This looks like there may be another OGL ICD loaded on the failing system than on the other. Try to see if nvogl.dll (that's the nVidia OGL driver IIRC, it should be only in windows\system32) might be duplicated somewhere in your path. Search your harddrive for this file, compare the properties (versions) (right click on the file) between the two machines.

Look into registry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current version\OpenGLdrivers. There's an entry for each ICD that will be loaded. If you have a clean system there should be only one entry and the DllName variable should point to nvogl.dll.

[Shadowplay]

Thanks for the specific things to try! Here's what I found:

"nvogl.dll" does not exist, but there is "nvoglnt.dll" which exists exactly once on this entire system and resides in the "C:\WINDOWS\system32" folder.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current version\OpenGLdrivers - has one folder called "RIVATNT" with the dll value of "nvoglnt". I assume that nvidia just never updated the folder name from the old RIVATNT to GEFORCE or something of that nature. Either that or this is the wrong version

Checking the properties of nvoglnt.dll on both ssytems shows that at the moment the "bad" system has a slightly newer version of the file, but otherwise they are identical in filesize. The bad one is newer because I'm currently on a newer driver. I assume that nvoglnt.dll is the correct file since it's working on one of the two systems.

Any suggestions on what to try next?

Hi,

1. Use one of the nvidia driver removers to completely clean the system.
2. Install the latest drivers.

Check www.guru3d.com for such removers.

[Zengar]

Really strange... maybe you're right and this IS a hardware issue. Try testing the memory sticks of the troublesome machine. If memory is ok, it may be your PSU or the mainboard.

[Shadowplay]

Ok here's one more bit of info that makes it seem like a software/driver problem after all.

Did another removal of the nvidia display drivers, rebooted, install current nvidia drivers, rebooted. Same problem as always. Decided to run GLinfo on both systems at this point and compare info.

Good System
Driver version: 6.14.10.9131
Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
Renderer: GeForce 7600 GT/PCI/SSE2/3DNOW!
OpenGL version: 2.0.3

Bad System
Driver version: 6.14.10.9131
Vendor: NVIDIA Corporation
Renderer: GeForce 7600 GT/PCI/SSE2/3DNOW!
OpenGL version:

On the bad system it doesn't show any info for OpenGL version, but I'm on the same drivers for both system. Bizarre.

Also if I click on "Extension lists" in GLinfo on the good system it shows a long list of the various extensions. On the bad system the list is blank, there are none listed at all.

Going to try swapping cards around yet again because I just can't accept what I'm seeing here.

FOLLOW UP
Swapped cards one more time - just to make sure - and still had the same results. Since it is so consistent at where it fails I don't suspect a power problem. Video card is known good. Memory is working in both systems. I think it has to be motherboard and there's maybe something flaky in the PCIe slot that for some reason has no effect on D3D apps.
