There is a search button at the top.
Were you to search for the error it gave, you hight have found out that to play tremulous you need graphics drivers.
Go install them.

But, it's a new portable PC. The drivers must be the lasts ones.

Thanks you for answer.

Let me guess, WVista inside? Then the latest drivers are most likely from Microsoft. And Microsoft drivers have no OpenGL support... :roll:

What gfx-card, what driver and what Windows are you using?

Yes, i'm using Windows Vista. (In fact, i'm on the PC of someone in my family. I was not so stupid to use Vista).

One more time, I see how Microsoft is clever.

Thanks you for answer, and forget my english fault (I'm from Belgium.)

Enjoy Tremulous.

Yeah, 640x480 is definitely "very high" resolution. :roll:
