well this prob jsut appeared recently and i figured it was nothing a ncie old reinstall wouldnt fix. well ok so i COMPLETELY REINSTALLED, uninstall EVERYTHING from SH, then install again. fresh stock install.

guess what?

my luck preceeds me. this error always pops up in the initial console.

GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

MOHAA works, everything's fine with that, i already got rid of BT temporarily, what's wrong????

You need to install vid card drivers

what is your mohaa/sh setting for r_glDriver?

cant find anything under that in any configs. neither my newconfig's or my unnamedsoldier have them.

ya it's real weird, i started going to vid card sites trying to find what i was looking for about a week ago, when this happened.

jealousy from my vid card!

with your pc normaly a cd called drivers is delivered.
run the file on that cd (if it isnt autorun), and select vid card driver, and he will reinstall the driver
had the same problem a few months ago....

This sometimes happens with my mohaa, its when your gfx settings (usually resolution) are set too high in game. Try the little SH config app, and then try, it works for me

well, none of this worked. it still gives me the subsytem errors. i'v reinstalled Sh again just to make sure and it's not working.

the configure applet thingy just messed wit the performance aspect. same problem tho

the driver reinstall should have worked but for some reason that subsy is stil missing or SH is being an idiot and cant find it.

I think JV is right. This happened to one of my friends and I told him to update his drivers and it worked. This was after he got a new harddrive though. If you haven't tried, then it's worth a try.
