52685 2002-06-05 13:16:00 Cannot load Wolfenstein Demo or Medal of Honour Demo(have downloaded patch from PC World) due to 'GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem' problem. Am running Win XP Pro with 256 DDR. Would appreciate any help on this matter. Cheers in advance. D Guest (0)

Am using a Nvidia GeForce2 DDR 64MB AGP.
Did try to reload drivers, had no change.

Downloaded OpenGL to no effect and ensured all files were not read only.

Still no joy, here is the Wolf console i recieve after failing to load.
