Yeah, I know - should go on an nVidia forum, but I figured that at least one of you guys would have seen this somewhere before (since some of you collect more than just 3Dfx cards)
My Uncle has an older AthlonXP based PC with the following specs...
Mainboard: Soltek SL-75FRN2-RL
http://www.ocinside.de/go_e.html?/html/results/mainboard_soltek_sl75frn2rl.htmlCPU AthlonXP 3200+
RAM 2GB DDR1
2xWestern Digital 200GB HDD SATA
Creative SB Audidgy 2
Yamaha SW1000XG
650W Corsair PSU
NEC DVD-RW
Pioneer DVD-RW
Until recently he was running an ATI 9500 128MB agp 8x graphics card...but this got the "black squares" problem denoting slow GPU death...
eBay came to the rescue in the form of a BFG 7800GS OC 256MB agp 8x card.
Everything installed and worked great!
I was running classic D3D games at MAX settings (F.E.A.R. for instance).
Then I tried OpenGL games...ALL of them CTD with the following APPCRASH error related to nvoglv32.dll:

OpenGL things just refuse to load...
I've tried rolling back drivers one at a time right back to 296.10...all of them do the same - D3D works, OpenGL doesn't!
If anyone has seen this before and knows what might fix it, give me a URL to point me to a possible fix...
Cheers lads!
