| Newbie | NVIDIA Video card driver problem Hi. I just bought a new game, and when I installed it it gave me an "graphics driver cannot run OpenGL 1.3" I tried downloading the latest VGA driver from NVIDIA, but when i try to extract it two files do not extract. It gives me a 0x80004005 error code. Any information on how to fix this extraction problem OR, even better, how to get my video driver to support OpenGL 1.3 would be excellent. Thanks |

| Antidisestablishmentarian | Re: NVIDIA Video card driver problem According to the nVidia site, it should *easily* be supporting the 8400M, as that range of cards Quote: With support for Microsoft® DirectX® 10 Shader Model 4.0 and High Dynamic-Range Lighting (HDR), GeForce 8400M GPUs let you rip through all of today's most advanced and cutting-edge games and applications. According to this Windows Vista and OpenGL-the Facts - OpenGL Pipeline Newsletter OpenGL works great on Vista....and according to the technical specs GeForce 8400M - Technical Specifications it fully supports OpenGL through OpenGL 2.1 |

| Newbie | Re: NVIDIA Video card driver problem Yeah i know it should...maybe it's just the game. i have to extract files because the VGA driver i downloaded is WinZIP, so it needs to be extracted before i can do anything. thing is, i've never had a problem with other games much more high-spec than this one. i'm not sure i can try again, all the drivers came pre-installed so i don't have a cd or anything like that. |

| Antidisestablishmentarian | Re: NVIDIA Video card driver problem Is the download from your laptop manufacturer? If not, get the official driver from them, or if they allow it, get the official driver from nVidia. |

| Banned | Re: NVIDIA Video card driver problem yes, or since your graphics card its nvidia go to the nvidia homepage search the updated driver and download it, i have an nvidia gefroce 6200 series and it works perfectly under vista 32 and 64 bits, i can tell you that any error on any game its anything but my driver of the graphics card, so if yours its 8400 series i believe nvidia should fix that bug by now, try to contact to the costumer support, they always help, specially if its for free lol!!! |
