So here is my problem:
I have tried two games, Doom 3 and Jedi Outcast and both of them give me the same ultimate message:

Doom was a bit diffrent but it ended in the same place. Does anyone know how to fix this???

What video card are you using? is it built in to your motherboard? it may not support Open GL, but if it is a descent card it should. Go into Control Panel>System>Display Properties>Advanced and go to the 3D tab, there should be Open GL & Direct3D settings. go into the Open GL seettings and you should try disabling some of the extra settings, if possible and see if they run with that.

Or maybe check your video card manufacturer's web site for an updated driver.

Got it cleared. Updated my driver.

Boy that was one easy fix.

ugh....I had the same issue. OpenGL errors suck. sadly my drivers didn't want to be updated so some gaming stuff doesnt run on here. evil video card! *plans to get a better one*
