OK.
I almost- ALMOST have FS2 working on this system. I tried the OpenGL approach, and it said that I require drivers which have OpenGL v1.2 or something similar, and that my current version is V1.1
Can anyone help me with this?? If i can get FS2 to work (albiet with sucky graphics) at least it means i can FRED and playtest my own missions!

im currently running Win2000 with an STB Veloticy 128 (Nvidia)

Get the latest video card drivers. If those drivers don't include OpenGLv1.2 or higher, than you are screwed.

Or get a new video card.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Dude, like DC said, go to the nVidia website and get the appropriate drivers. They will include the latest version of OGL. You just need to pray that your card supports a high enough version ;7

A Riva 128?  Likely doesn't go that high - even in drivers.  I could be wrong but thats essentially the same generation as a 3DFX Voodoo 1 card (but it was never quite as sucessful).
