    ChoosePixelFormat bombs out.

    Hi, when I do a ChoosePixelFormat(hDC, &pixelDesc); on my Win95 machine with a really naff graphics card I get "First-chance exception in App.exe (GDI32.DLL): 0xC0000005: Access Violation." The routine works fine on my NT4 machine with a groovy graphics card. Any ideas? Do I have to update openGL in my 95 machine?

    Found out that the problem was not me, it's microsoft. See MSDN article Q233390 which says that some graphics card drivers cause this fault when debugging in vc++. Gits.
