4. Look in device manager
Or look on the "settings" tab of your display properties.

An integrated adapter - I'm not 100% sure that it is possible to get the game to run at all.


Install the newest drivers from ATI (the first two items in the list; not the third)

2. Update your Video Drivers
Apparently you don't have an OpenGL driver installed. Due to the competition between the OpenGL and Microsoft DirectX standards, the drivers supplied with windows generally don't include OpenGL support.

What type of video card is installed in your system?

8. Isn't that
A glide only port?

Meaning that it only was written for 3DFX cards with GLide, which is a proprietary language for the hardware?

9. Real Maniacs play...
Wolfenstein:Enemy Territory. Far too many hours a day, too. Because it's hella cool and free and for Windows and Linux.

And it makes you more virile and studly. ;-)
