I'm not a huge expert on this, but it appears that you don't have sufficient graphics drivers installed. What are your system specs? (i.e., CPU, memory, and most importantly, what's your graphics card?)
-
That problem is probably the most commonly posted problem on that forum. Do a search, but not until you've made sure you've installed the latest drivers ( any drivers ! ) for your graphics card. And before you ask, the drivers that come with XP are NOT good enouth. Microsoft carefuly strips anything that has to do with OpenGL from the drivers it preinstalls with XP so you have to get them from NVidia or ATI ( or Matrox or ... )

Thats looks like old 3dfx card. Maybe broken on old OpenGL core support by graphic card. I had this great card, but his architecture is very old. When is 3dfx, try this great web: http://www.3dfxzone.it/ here are still drivers under development.

No. The engine tries 3Dfx if it can't load any other OpenGL driver. disco_lemon, simply install graphics card VENDOR drivers. Microsoft drivers don't support OpenGL.

You cant play the game eh?
Well, run through this list and if there is anythiung you dont have then there may be some compatibility issues:
Brain
Eyes
Hands
If youve got all of those and are stil;l experiancing some issues, do the same with this list:
FPS skill
Tactics
A sense of humour
If those are all there and you still cant play.
You are going to die in 2 hours.
