[SOLVED] Jedi Academy OpenGL problem with vista

[shoo92]

I palyed this with xp with no problem but when i uprgraded to vista it doesn't work.

I have an ATI Radeon X300 Series Graphics Card and it can do opengl but i think the porblem might lie within the new os vista... heres what the eror says:


GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

The Vista Drivers for the ATI may not support OpenGL yet. Have you tried updating the game to the latest version..
Use my ATI link to get the latest graphics drivers

Ok i'll try but when i go to driers i have to go to windows xp because thatss wat my os originally was before i updated..but ill try that

[shoo92]

PROBLEM SOLVED!!! It was either the drivers or the game update but whatever it was it worked... I think it was the game update because before my ati said opengl was not availible but now it is...anyway thanks for all your help!
