Hello,
I’m taking a class on OpenGL next semester and the professor gave me a link with the source files. I put them into the proper folders for my C++ compiler (Visual C++ express 2008) and tried to run one of the examples that came with it. The first and simplest was meant to just create a window, however, Microsoft Vista’s Data Execution Prevention shuts it down and won’t let it run. And, unfortunately, it won’t let me switch DEP off for it.
I’m aware of the issues with Vista and OpenGL, but is there anything I can do to fix this? In case it’s relavent, my video card is an ATI Radeon X1200.
Edit: I made sure I have the most recent drivers. But I ultimately had to shut DEP off completely to get it to work. Is there another way around this?
