Problem with the example

Hi

When I run the example I get the following error in the log file:

Video Init:
Accelerated OpenGL display device not detected.
Accelerated D3D device not detected.
Voodoo 2 display device not detected.

"OpenGL" display device not found!
"OpenGL" display device not found!
"D3D" display device not found!
"Voodoo2" display device not found!

I checked the DX/OpenGL and everthing is fine.

I'm running XP Pro, GeForce3 and DX9

Any ideas?

Thanks
Paul

Just out of curiosity. Have you installed the latest openGL drivers for your graphics card?

I know stock Windows XP, out of the box, has a problem with opengl unless you update your drivers.

I got this too on the pc of my brother but wasn't able to find out until now what's going on (brother lives far away).

If I remember right the nvidia drivers from the windows update site don't work right.. get the latest Det's from nVidia.

Thanks,

It was the drivers - it works fine now with the August 2003 build.

Thanks

Hi,

same with my brother we found out. The reason was really that no OpenGL drivers were installed. Strange. He installed the very latest from ATI.com. Anyway. Now it works :-)

Best,
Martin
