that sounds strange, fragmentarium is running 100% on a graphcis card, you are sure your graphics card can deal with it ?!
it sounds like a driver problem, what is your graphics card name ?!

the drivers Microsoft ships (and maybe also those you get via Windows Update) don't have the OpenGL parts.

Get updated drivers directly from nVidia please.

Which GeForce 9600 is this ??
  • GeForce 9600 GT
  • GeForce 9600 GSO 512
  • GeForce 9600 GSO
  • GeForce 9600M GT
  • GeForce 9600M GS
  • etc...

The table here shows the features reported for devices with the following GL_RENDERER strings:

The suggestion about downloading new drivers from Nvidia homepage helped. So now I just need to find out how to use the program. Thank you so much for the help here.
