OpenGL on Win XP

Where do I put the OpenGL files to make them work? The GLSetup that comes with Quake III Arena only works under Win95 and Win98.

Once I downloaded the newest OpenGL (put the files into C:\Windows\System), Quake worked fine the first time. But the consequetive tries failed, with grafics being strange (basically everything–scenery and players–consisted of triangles and the lighting was weird).

P.S. I have a Permedia2 video card, it’s got the newest drivers.

where did u download the opengl files?

Right here on this site (www.opengl.org), the OpenGl 1.1.

Well… I downloaded OpenGL 1.1 and copied the file opengl32.dll to the C:\Windows\System32 folder and guess what?

IT BLOODY WORKED!!!

WindowsXP will recognise the fact that you have replaced it own LAME version of opengl32.dll and tell you that a critical file has been changed and insert your Windows XP Installation CD to restore it (or words to that effect) - just click on cancel and tell it to bugger off!!!

You’re lucky, dude, cause this doesn’t work for me. I’m pretty sure the old .dll gets replaced since the OpenGL95.exe is a DOS problem and it goes ahead and just replaced whatever it wants…

Any other advice?

Appreciate your help.
