Im getting this message when i try to play my PC games. 'GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL susbsystem'. I had to re-install my drivers for my graphics card last night because my display adapter would let my monitor change from 640x480. Did i do something wrong here then? Its an ATI Rage 120 Pro card if that helps. DONT SAY 'DOWNLOAD NEW DRIVERS' because i cant get the graphics card out o find the serial number and enter it on the ATI site. Can anyone smart help?

I believe not all graphics card support fully OpenGL, you can interegrate the system with DOS software like:

You will need to create a DOS startup disk to boot the PC
