Hello, I am fairly new to gaming, am trying to run Return to Castle
Wolfenstein on my system, am running windows xp home sp2, the game installs
without any trouble at all, however it simply will not run, i keep getting a
box come up with an OpenGL error or something like that, i dont know much
about this opengl thing, but indications are my onboard video should be able
to handle this, if not i would like to know, anyhow am wondering if anyone
can help me out, pass on some info/advice? thanks.

You can Google OpenGL for details, but OpenGL is a standard 3d graphics
rendering protocol. Your video card may be unable to run it or may not be
configured to run it. You may need to download drivers. If you have a
built in or very cheap video card, it may lack the ability to run all the
current (and older) 3-d games. If you have a decent card, it should be
capable of handling OpenGL but may require some action on your part--see
your computer/video card documentation.
