Start up problems!

[Higgings.]

Hello.

Just arrived at this lovely forum, even thogh I have use the DL section for some time now.
Both the Outcast and the Acadamy.

Now, the thing is, I can start my Jedi knights game anylonger.
I have my pc formatet in a pc shop cause of some virus ect ect.

Now I can install Jedi knight (from Outcast demo to Acadamy) BUT I cant start them.
I get at "warning" which reads:

(NB. This is taken from the Jedi Knight Outcast demo, but looks the same for alle the others.)

GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem


I am no Einstein with PC´s, so what is this, I have never had problems with Jedi Knight games before !

Thanks on advance.

You need to update the drivers for your graphics card.

[S.T.A.L.K.E.R.]

That would be my guess as well.

Make sure to update all your video, sound, etc drivers to the latest versions
