Whenever I try to start Urban Terror(Open source game based on ioQuake) I get an error message regarding OpenGL, but Vega Strike runs perfectly fine. The error message is as follows: GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

I tried reinstalling, and the same installer worked on several other computers, anyone have any ideas?

Try installing an updated version of your video card drivers or reinstall em if they're current.

"Why am I getting the error ‘GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem’?
First you should update your video drivers and then reboot. If this problem still occurs, go to your Control Panel and then Display Properties > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshoot. Make sure the video acceleration slider is not all the way down."

heh the name urban terror is so bad sounding but the game is fun! My bro (nt) and I play it together with bots on our udp but recently we've been having the game crash randomly.

Reinstalling the card drivers worked, thanks.
