OpenGL now in software mode :(

OpenGL used to work in hardware mode on my GeForce 256 card. It recently stopped. Instead, I’ve got software OpenGL which is nearly useless. For what it’s worth D3D stuff is acelerated (sp). I’ve tried reinstalling the drivers to no avail. Any ideas.

Click Start / Run.
Type “win.ini” (without quotes) and press OK.
Search for a line that says “DVA=0” (without quotes).
Add a semicolon ( before the DVA (The line should now look like this: “;DVA=0” (without quotes))
Save and close the file
If you find this causes more problems, just take out the semicolon.
Note that not everyone has this line, and if there is none you’ll have to try another solution.
