You must download the OpenGL patch from www.papy.com.
Also use nvidia reference drivers 2.08 or higher for your card.
Set the buffer flipping mode to block transfer. 3.53 drivers let you do this
via control panel, else you must change FlipControl in the registry from 2
to 0.

In the Start menu, choose "Run". Type in "regedit". Then click your way to
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\NVIDIA Corporation\RIVA TNT\OpenGL], or
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Class\Display\0001\NV In one of these folders, change the value of the "FlippingControl" setting Jon Depending on the driver version, this setting can be found in
dia\OpenGL]
in the registry to "0".

Thanks to all [Dave, Bart, Peter and Jon] appreciate the help.
Obviously I messed up somewhere along the line during the installation
of "openGL" and "GPL 1.2" patch. I re-installed openGL as advised and
now it works fine. All I have to do now is learn how to drive these
machines. Thanks again as I was ready to return GPL to store and would
have without all of your help.
