1. Open a DOS prompt.
2. type “format c:”
3. say yes when asked if you are sure you want to do this.

Have you tried downloading the newest opengl drivers for your video card?

You need check out your video cards web site for the newest openGL drivers. Note it is the video card people who write the drivers for opengl support for there cards.

How did you it? I kept yelling yes at my PC, but my PC did not response at all. Maybe I wasn’t polite enough?

I got the same error when I tried to play Quake 3 and Wolfenstein (both of which use OpenGL). The solution is to download the latest driver for your video card, and it should work.
