Apologies if this has been discussed before, but I can't find anything specifically relating to this issue.
I am running Windows XP, and Diaspora release will not play. I just get a pop up window "Freespace 2 Open has encountered a problem and needs to close etc". However, the debug version of Diaspora runs fine.
Does anybody know how to resolve this issue?

Please post your fs2_open.log file. Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post. Even if the debug build is still working, it might have useful information on what's causing the crash.

Your video card drivers may be out of date - can you update them? Wikipedia tells me that the GeForce 6 series should support OpenGL 2.0, but your drivers are only reporting 1.5.3.

I've updated the drivers and this seems to have done the trick! Thank you very much, your help is greatly appreciated! :)
