15041	2001-07-05 03:08:00	For some reason whenever I try to play in OpenGL mode, Half-Life crashes after 5 minutes and I have to reboot. (Half-Life isn't the only game that I'm getting problems with.) Direct3D works fine but I get 50 fps max as opposed to 50 fps minimum in OpenGL.

15043	2001-07-05 05:31:00	what deternator drivers are you using?? offical or unoffical(leaked) drivers? you may want to try 'opengl setup'. its a small program which dcides what opengl drivers you need and downloads them, but be warned its not supported and can be a backward step. as much as i love opengl i use direct3d for hl/cs due to opengl notliking being minimized and causing probs. whats your timedemo in q3???

15045	2001-07-05 07:06:00	Not sure if it's a VIA chipset. How do I find out? Please advise.	Guest (0)

15047	2001-07-11 11:00:00	What OS do you have? my friend had trouble with Windows ME because its version of DirectX 8 is incomplete, and slightly different, install the latest release of DirectX 8 if you have ME and see if that fixes things.	Guest (0)
15048	2001-07-12 06:48:00	I'll have a look for those OpenGL32.dll 's when I get the comp back from the shop. It could have been a faulty motherboard problem, or I thought it could be because of a lack of cooling systems. Updates to follow.	Guest (0)
