I just recently upgraded from Windows 98 to Windows XP.

While playing in 98 I had no problems at all, but upon installing XP I now recieve Open GL errors.

Is there anything I can do ?

Here is a Copy of the error:

WinXP comes with a driver database which excludes OpenGL support.
so chances are, your video card drivers (the ones that came with the OS) will not run this game.

you need new drivers.

click this link and find the latest official drivers from your card's manufacturer.
