Hi rikk4321, this is a difficult chip (no, it’s not a video card) to get to run any game.
You might try upgrading the drivers to whatever latest one you can find. Unfortunately SiS support is pretty much gone (not that it was ever great).
Good luck!
Quake 3 engine “Could not load OpenGL subsytem”…
Hi!
I think i’ve found a nice, simple and fast solution for our trouble… It works for me, and can you tell me (ruturlin@globetrotter.net) if it works for you too?
The solution is: NEVER set your game resolution HIGHER than the desktop one, or you’ll get this pretty opengl error message. So if you want to run the game in 1024x768, set this resolution for the desktop and THEN run the game…
I got a geforce 4 ti4200 8x 128mo ddr and running the Quake 3 engine at 1280x1024… Please e-mail me if it’s working on other cards!
thx
Yeah, I did it !!! no more openGL error
With my 6 years old P II,400 MHZ and a nVidia Riva TNT I am playing RTCW on Win XP.
After several drivers this one works:
Nvidia 1470 to get on page driverguide.com
I FOUND THE ING SOLUTION ALREADY!!!..WINDOWS 2000 PPL LISTEN UP!!! IF YOUR RUNNING SERVICE PACK 2 ITS GONNA **** UP!!! THE AWNSER IS IF YOU GO TO www.microsoft.com GO TO DOWNLOAD AND THEN SEARCH FOR “OpenGL” without the quotes and it will return 27 hits scroll throuigh the pages all (3) of them and there will be one with a title that says something about a glitch in the SP2 system…DOWNLOAD THE PATCH IT WORKS!!!..also…GET LINUX DUMBS I HATE WINDOWS LINUX AND MAC WILL RULE THE WORLD AHAHAHAHAH!

GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem
this is what i get when i try to run wolfenstein or quake… i fixed the opengl problem that maya 4.0 had (it said i needed opengl 1.1 and i had 1.0)… i don’t know how to fix this problem with these games. i’m using windows xp professional and i have a leadtek geforce4 mx a170.
i’ve got the same problem as everyone in this forum, but the thing is i’m not on winblows XP and i havent mmade any big changes on my comp recently,
My comp is a pentium 3, it has 700mb of ram
i’ve got a nVidia TNT2 video card and i still have that damn open gl problem !!!:mad
if anyone could send me a solution to that problem i’d be very grateful
thanx in advance,
GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem
see this DLL is the prob!!!
Check for the following XP-monitor settings…:
Advanced settings
Performance
Use bus mastering (must be on)
Worked flawlessly even for my sluggish (doing 3D) Matrox G450 card.

plez help me i wanna play medal of honour!!! e-mail me with the solution plezzzzz my e-mail is sik_skyline69@hotmail.com.
http://groups.msn.com/OpenGlProblems/documents.msnw The opengl32.ddl is a fix u download it from documents and overite ur other c:/windows/system32and it should play open gl games.
*Link to this page for pro help, it will explain all! http://groups.msn.com/OpenGlProblems/links.msnw
First for chips, start, control pannel, system then hardware, then device manager look under display adapters, write down the name and maker of ur card. go on the web and search the maker then download the update fo, exe i have a radeon 7000 made by ati TECHNOLIGIES). , go to www.ati.com , look under find driver / download drivers, find ur driver and instal, then adjust ur settings and try ur game… should work…
…REMEMBER IF UR CARD IS MADE BY A COMPANY U MUST UPDATE IT AT THAT COMPANY IF U DONT IT WONT EVEN WORK.
NOW moniters, start, control pannel, system then hardware, then device manager, look under moniters and see how many are installed, if you have two installed click one one and disable it. (that is how to fix, but not the problem on my computer, my computer has a plug and play moniter because xp installs stuff itself)
hey ppl if u really want to see if your card is at fault of not being able to play go to activisions website (maker of theeses 3d games) and send them ur dxaig test. start,run,type in :dxaig.exe,press save,attach that file in the acitvision support question they r really helpfull.,www.activision.com press support, or just go to links on this site and there is a direct link.
for non xpClick Start / Run.
Type “win.ini” (without quotes) and press OK.
Search for a line that says “DVA=0” (without the quotes).
Add a semicolon ( before the DVA (the line should now look like this: “;DVA=0” (without quotes))
Save and close the file
If you find this causes more problems, just take out the semicolon.
all …Check to make sure you have a supported 3D video card to play the game. Return to Castle Wolfenstein requires that you have one of the supported 3D cards to play the game. Your card must have 100% OpenGL support and at least 16 MB of memory. A list of the supported chipset is listed in the minimum system requirements.Make sure you have the latest video and sound card drivers from the manufacturers’ websites.
If you have a motherboard with an onboard video card you need to disable it in the system BIOS. Refer to your motherboard manual and/or contact your motherboard manufacturer on how to do this.
If you are using a video card which supports dual monitors, the secondary monitor must be disabled for OpenGL to initialize correctly.
Make sure the 3D hardware acceleration is turned all the way up.
For Windows XP and 2000:
NOTE: These steps are specific to Windows XP, Windows NT and 2000 may differ slightly.
This will occur when insufficient Virtual Memory is available for the game. For the best performance and stability under Windows NT, 2000 and XP you should aim for having at least 600MB of virtual memory available.
Turn off GL Extensions in the game by changing the configuration file.
If you are not using a 3Dfx video card, disable the WickedGL support in the game.
If you are using a 3Dfx video card try copying the custom 3dfx OpenGL files into the System directory.
Windows XP Users:
Please note that the default drivers that come with Windows XP are NOT OpenGL compatible. You will need to go to the video card or video chip manufacturer and obtain the latest Windows XP compatible drivers with OpenGL support. This is especially true for ATi and nVidia based video cards.
enemy territory*
Make sure you have the latest video and sound card drivers from the manufacturers’ websites.
Set your desktop to a resolution of 800x600, 32 bit True Color.
Make sure the 3D hardware acceleration is turned all the way up.
For Windows XP and 2000:
[This message has been edited by dr. death (edited 10-07-2003).]
Hey Dr Death, same problem here, with Jedi Knight 2. I won’t post the stuff that comes up. My video card is a Trident Blade promedia. While you think that it’s the video card thats too old, there is an elegant twist in this plot.
I had Quake 3 and it ran fine on the same computer in Win98SE. It was only when I got XPpro that this occurred in Jedi Knight 2.
Any help is appreciated.
Hey if your having trouble with the OpenGL errors than most likely you have to update your video card driver. I use windows xp, and had the same problem with wolfenstein. I use nvidia riva tnt2 card and had to update. Do a search for your vid card and should find some updates. Hope that helps you.
2 problems with that:
Trident has gone under as far as I know, and drivers for their cards are as scarce as hens teeth.
As far as I know, I do have the latest drivers.
