Hi. I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium and using a 3d card called Ati Radeon Sapphire x1700. I was playing some games and they worked fine until last night when i suddenly got a problem. Now the games runs in slow motion and the strangest thing about it is that the less graphics settings i use on the 3d card and on the games, the slower the games runs ??? If i put the settings to maximum they are playable, but still in slow motion ? I look at thye catalyst control center that the version number on Opengl is not available anymore. I tried to uninstall the 3d card, reset machine and reinstall the 3d card about 25/30 times since last night, but i can't get it to work. I also used the system recovery and formatted the harddisk and reinstall windows again, but i still got the same problem. The games runs in Slow motion ? Does anybody have any clue at all to help me. After about 35-40 hours of pc repair and about 4 hours of sleep i'm beginning to be a bit annoyed :-((( Could somebody please try and help me? I don't know if anybody can, but i appreciate any help at all, because i seem to be stuck right now ! In advance, many many thanks !

if the software did not fix, then its hardware.

Well, i thought so too, but after trying several games it seems that only a couple of them is too slow to play ! I tried a game called Far Cry and that one worked just fine. I tried Fifa 2007, but that is not working wel ? I'vbe tried about 5-6 games and it seems that only 2 of them is not working? It's very strange, because all of them worked when i bought the pc ?

Microsoft in there innane mind decided to NOT include Open GL AT ALL in Vista. Hello XP PRO!!!!
