GLW_StartOpenGL() - could not load OpenGL subsystem

I'm trying to play Quake 3, but I got this error message. I use a Nividia Riva TNT2 model 64. Any help?

[tandoc]

go to www.nvidia.com and update your drivers

[guitarnerd]

Hey I have the same exact card! just download the proper driver from nVidia's web site...it will install opengl and everything. I can also give you a registry entry that activates something in the driver that allows you to overclock

[tandoc]

it doesn't install openGL - the nVidia drivers r 100% compatible tho - it runs faster than OpenGL i was told

[The Red Guy]

I installed a driver and it worked, from a cd. Thanks guys!

It did for mine I just installed the driver for the nVidia TNT2 M64 and it showed that it had OpenGL drivers installed
