The other day I just got done loading the whole system back into one of my computers (formated/os install, etc) when I go to start a Half-Life game. Unfortantely as soon as it goes to the console it boots back to the menu saying my video card doesn't support OpenGL. I have a 2 year old Creative TNT2 Ultra that has been running games great ever since the day I got it so I know my card supports OpenGL! So I proceed to reinstall video card drivers, I tried the new 12.41s that are out. No luck, tried some really old (but stable) 5.32s that I use to use all the time, nothing. Then tried to reinstall DirectX8, still nothing. I made sure that opengl32.dll was in the winnt\system32 folder and I even put a copy in the Half-Life directory, nothing. I've already checked around and saw that it is somewhat a common problem but most people have been able to fix it with these reinstalls (or there is a situation where a program writes something different to the win.ini but that hasn't been done on this computer).
I do remember having this problem with my old Voodoo2 once but that was easily fixed by putting the 3dfxgl.dll in the half-life directory. Can anyone think to try anything more before I reformat this thing again? BTW I'm on Win2000 with SP2.
