Do you have some 3Dfx stuff still lingering in your system? Tried GLSetup (not sure if its made for G400 though)?

start/run regedit - open up regedit

go to key

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\OpenGLdrivers

remove any ref to 3dfx

 

[Vegito]

okie, i'll try but this is a non 3dfx system, FIRST game ever installed on this baby...

thanks, let me try..

weird, the only thing it says is

G400ICD "G400ICD.DLL"
and nothing else..

 

[Vegito]

had to set into single head mode.. dual head causes that error.. weird..

 

[rickn]

yup, ogl dont work in dualhead mode.

Like I'm supposed to know that hahahah.. first game on a matrox so I didn't know.. thanks.

just curious, but has there ever been a single game based on the star trek universe that actually didnt suck? They always come out with these games and they get really low ratings and they look like crap. rather depressing.

this one is fps so it's a bit like quake... but those freaking borgs adapt too fast..
