opengl error

so a friend of mine keeps getting this error when he starts et. he said he got his drivers correctly installed. guess theres just something wrong with the r_mode?

tell him to install the right drivers
i got this problem once.i had to reinstall et and worked fine after
dont use SkiRhook
upadate ur grpahic card drivers
tell him to try r_mode 4/6
drivers, had the same
He said he installed drivers already.
If you got Avast anti-virus,then uninstall it,sometimes it has OpenGL load block.
And sometimes it is necessary to remove the old drivers before installing the new ones
