These drivers contain an Open GL ICD. regards Robert "Terje Alexander Barth" <instant0.gmail.com> wrote in message news:13FC7BC1-C359-410C-92AC-8C259FF68C44@microsoft.com... > Hi, > > Anyone been able to play any OpenGL Games in Windows VISTA RC2 x64? > > How. > > -- > --- > ///Terje Alexander Barth \\\/// |

Cant really provide you with a direct download link, but I suggest you try using a search engine and entering some keywords such as Download Windows Vista x64 then looking at a few of the results. Really hope Nvidia release some new drivers soon... I want OpenGL to work!.. *grr* -- --- ///Terje Alexander Barth \\\/// |

| | RE: OpenGL Games in Vista x64 RC2 on Nvidia platform. Nope the Nvidia drivers that ship with RC2 do not support OpenGL at all. The Nvidia RC1 drivers don't work under RC2 don't even try it. You will lose all hardware acceleration.

| | Re: OpenGL Games in Vista x64 RC2 on Nvidia platform. Only thing you can try to get OpenGL to work is to install older nvidia drivers. It will disable Aero, but OpenGL works for me once I do that (but when you do that many DirectX games with have issues, my oh my!).
