OpenGL Problem

I installed a flight sim called fa/18 from a company
called Xicat (mistake?).  Now all OpenGL apps on my
system are screwed up.  They run at less than 1 frame
per second.  This includes FA/18, Racer, and GPL.

I installed DX 8.1 and updated Nvidia drivers for the
crappy GF2 MX card I'm using.

What is the problem????

Thanks,
Pat Dotson

The GF2 MX400 is probably the best sub $100 card on the planet.  Uninstall the flight sim, and then
re-install DX and your nVidia drivers.  Should fix the problem.

GL setup didn't improve anything.  This is crazy.

Did this, and it didn't help.  Maybe I need to go back to DX 8.0?

Looks like that game just made you reinstall windows. :(

  You sure vsync isn't enabled?  Lots of time when you've done what you
describe, it defaults to on.
