I reinstalled ET several times but it keeps giving me this error, I also have installed the latest nvidia drivers and it keeps giving me this shit. I'm really out of ideas atm does somebody knows how to fix this shit?

GLW_ChoosePFD failed seems to be the main problem, but i have no clue how to fix it
gl with this :1
I had this error before but a simple reinstallation did the trick. Now it doesnt works so i'm out of options.
Parent
uninstall graphics driver and let "driver cleaner pro" run in safe mode.

Then reinstall, should help. (and stick to the latest official version 175.19)
Did not worked..
Parent
normally that´s a driver prob but it seems you are in trouble now :o

Tried any other opengl-games?
Parent
try formatting
Update DirectX
Directx = 9.0c
Parent
DirectX has nothing to to with opengl tbh
Parent
i had the same problem and criatura too...it helped me...
Parent
instal ultimate installer
Did several times but it still gives the error..
i like it when i make and obvious statement on crossfire and then everyone says "wow n1 sherlock"...
funny how everyone thinks they are smart.
When I remove the drivers my computer restarts inmediatly. Then it shows "Standaard" etc. so the stock drivers are installed, then I download the latest drivers, I install them, I restart again and it still does not work.

Directx9.0c was already installed.
