I have installed several games but none of them will play. The error message is
GLW_ START OPEN GL ( ) could not load OPEN GL SUBSYTSEM
Can anyone please help as I am a novice in computing ?
 
It's probably your video card. If you have a really old card, your not going to be able to play OpenGL games. Hope that helped.
 
Your first step is to determine what kind of video card you have and get the
latest drivers from the manufacturer. Most OpenGL games require hardware
acceleration for OpenGL and Windows only provides software acceleration
natively.

Try setting your windows desktop to 16-bit colors
Search the internet for further suggestions.
Buy a new video card.

ps...

The files opengl32.dll and glu32.dll must be in your path. you might only have glu32.dll, but not opengl32.dll. find a copy of opengl32.dll in C:\WINNT\OldServicePackFiles\i386. Copy it to the windows/system32 directory
