well I have just downloaded PS and have been using gronomists newbie guide to installation and such until I got to the part where you open \"OpenGL.CFG\", it says \"windows says it cant Identify the extension\" so I just oped it with notepad and it says:
;-------------------------------------------
; OpenGL specific stuff
;-------------------------------------------
; Support for automatic overrides of various settings.
Video.OpenGL.Config.3dfx.GL_VENDOR = 3Dfx*
Video.OpenGL.Config.3dfx.config = gl3dfx.cfg
Video.OpenGL.Config.nvGeforce.GL_RENDERER = *GeForce*
Video.OpenGL.Config.nvGeforce.config = glnvgf.cfg
; Override the detected graphics capabilities.
; For broken drivers or unknown cards you can uncomment and set
; the following values. If commented, a nice default will be used instead.
;Video.OpenGL.Caps.CanClip = no
;Video.OpenGL.Caps.MaxTextureSize = 1024
;Video.OpenGL.Caps.NeedsPO2Maps = yes
;Video.OpenGL.Caps.MaxAspectRatio = 32768
; Enable if you have hardware stencil buffer
Video.OpenGL.Caps.Stencil = yes
; Enable if OpenGL seems to crash for you. It is possible that this is
; caused by not correctly clipping geometry to screen boundaries.
;Video.OpenGL.Caps.NeedScreenClipping = yes
; Set to the number of OpenGL clipping planes that are hardware accelerated.
; If set to 0 then this kind of clipping is disabled. Default is 6.
Video.OpenGL.Caps.HWPlanes = 6
; Clipping modes:
; n (no clipping): don\'t use clipping at all but rely on z-buffer
; to do the clipping for us. Only works when the object is rendered
; using either ztest or zuse.
; z (zbuf clipping): this is a variant of \'no clipping\' specifically
; for the outer polygon (or view). In this case the outside of that
; portal (i.e. the places on the window/screen where CS will never
; render) will be filled with z-buffer.
; s (stencil clipping): use the stencil buffer for clipping.
; p (plane clipping): use OpenGL plane clipping.
; 0 (software clipping): use the software clipper.
; All of these modes (except software clipping) have an uppercase variant
; which adds lazy clipping before doing the other operation. Lazy clipping
; means that a quick test on all triangles will discard all triangles that
; are totally invisible but keep all the others without clipping.
;
; Below are clipping modes for various operations. In addition to the
; modes described above you can also use \'auto\' which will try to
; autodetect the most efficient operation. You can also use multiple
; modes in which case these modes will be used in case the first one
; is not possible for some reason. One example is that \'n\' cannot be
; used on objects that are rendered with zfill or znone. In that case
; you need other modes. If you don\'t specify other modes then 0 will
; automatically be used (software clipping).
; Clipping mode to use for portals with optional clipping (i.e. most
; regular portals). Possible values are n,N,s,S,p,P, or 0. Usually \'n\'
; or \'N\' is recommended. \'n\' is better if you are on fast hardware that
; doesn\'t mind overdraw. \'N\' is better if you have hardware for which
; overdraw is relatively expensive.
Video.OpenGL.ClipOptional = auto
; Clipping mode to use for portals with required clipping (for special
; cases like floating portals). Possible values are s,S,p,P, or 0.
Video.OpenGL.ClipRequired = auto
; Clipping modes to use for the outer portal. Possible values are z,
; Z,s,S,p,P, or 0.
Video.OpenGL.ClipOuter = auto
; Enable Dither mode.
Video.OpenGL.EnableDither = yes
; Enable Bilinear texture mapping (slower, especially
; if you don\'t have hardware acceleration).
Video.OpenGL.EnableBilinearMap = yes
; Sharpen mipmaps to less blurry. May or may not improve visual quality,
; depends on textures.
; Set to 0 to turn it off.
Video.OpenGL.SharpenMipmaps = 256
; If this is set to \'yes\' then you don\'t care about good perspective
; correction. This may mean that textures are rendered faster.
; Wether or not this hint is honored depends on the implementation.
Video.OpenGL.HintPerspectiveFast = no
; This tells how to blend lightmaps with their underlying textures.
; Legal modes are \'multiplydouble\', \'multiply\' (the default), \'coloradd\',
; \'add\', and \'auto\'. Choose to fit your hardware and taste. The \'multiply\' mode
; is supported on most hardware but is often too dark. If your hardware
; supports it, \'multiplydouble\' often gives a better scene.

; Enable an artifical speed limit on the FPS. This can help to increase
; smoothness with very high frame rates. The value given is in ms.

; The following variables indicates the number of super-lightmaps for the
; four super lightmap queues. Queue 0 super lightmaps will have size
; equal to SuperLightMapSize config value. Queue 1 is four times smaller

Im sure I dont have to open it with notepad, but I apparently don\'t have the program to open this file.

Yup, notepad is OK to use. What are you trying to do? I don\'t see any problem with what you pasted there... everything looks normal to me.

Hmm...nvm I figured out the problem and fixed it, thx anyways.
