    Hi to Kevin and all that will read this:

    Here goes. I have an IBM Aptiva running 450mhz with 192meg ram. I have windows XP Pro installed. My display adapter is a SIS 530 soldered to motherboard and only PCI connections.
    The question is: I really badly want to play the game "Return to Castle Wolfenstein." I have heard it might be possible but would have very poor quality. Do I need another video card? I believe my sis has weak 3D capabilities. I have already installed the game with no problem but when I go to play it say " no open gl detected" Any way of getting around this without spending a fortune on a video card?

    Any advise would be appreciated!! Mike

    Unfortunatly your card and it's drivers must support Open GL. My Matrox card on my system G450 does not support open GL without the latest drivers.

    Go here for more info...http://www.glsetup.com/

    I played this game on my laptop with the ATI card under XP and it runs great!
