If you have a graphics card, update the drivers, and attempt to run \"Planeshift OpenGL mode\" from Start > Programs > Planeshift

There is no way for I, or anyone here to \"enable\" you to use openGL.

That question does not deserve an answer. The process is specific to Video Card manufacturer and is easy enough for my cat to do. Maybe you should look for the drivers first? Honestly, I am not going to spoon-feed you everything. If you want that, find another MMORPG with paid tech support. That way they get something out of your ignorance.

Translation for those with n > 1/2, where n equals the average number of brain cells you have.

If you don\'t want to help me help you by doing what I asked to assist in troubleshooting hen it isn\'t possible for me to help you. You have to update the video card drivers before I can assist you. I\'m afraid that you are in no position to accuse me of \"complaining\" since you are the one who isn\'t making it easy for me to help. Not I.

No, download the driver from your graphics card\'s manufacturer\'s website.
AFAIK Drivers aren\'t usually in Window$Update

nVIDIA\'s drivers are in windows update as well as on their website.
The windows update ones works suprisingly well actually, but I still like the http://www.nvidia.com ones better
