I have a BFG 7800GTX OC with the 81.26 drivers installed. When i try to run Chronicles of Riddick: escape from butchers bay. It shuts down as soon as it starts and says "This game requires OpenGL 1.3 compatibility"

anyone know what my problem might be?

Sounds like a bug in the game. Assuming you installed your drivers well, that is.

Get the latest patch for riddick. The problem is that the latest nvidia drivers are open gl 2.0, and riddick is detecting only the .0 and ignoring the 2. Latest patch fixes this.

Yup, you must patch the game to 1.1. You should always patch games to their latest versions before starting to play them.
