am a game tester for EA sports and my computer at Home has a Geforce 3 in my computer with windows xp and i have the MP Demo and the real version in my computer and i got no problem running it but only y am playing the Demo is that i finish the Medal of Honor game and i can't play the full version of Medal of Honor online because EA only lets you play the full version on gamespy the 22 january so if you get the game early your gonna have to wait to play sorry!!!!

What video card do you have? That error means that your Open GL drivers can't load for some reason or other. Either your card is to old, or your drivers are. Update to the newest drivers, and failing that get a new card.
I've been running the demo without a prob on XP since it came out last week.

I don't think it's an XP problem.
XP Home Edition runs fine with Quake 3 and Wolfenstein, and I don't see how EA could fuck up something as big as not giving full xp support.

It's not an XP problem. Both demos work fine on XP HOme for me with a Geforce 3.

Get the XP drivers for your Geforce card.

When you installed XP, it used its default drivers wich doesnt support Open GL. Just go to the Cards site and get there latest update and youll be fine

My demo runs fine in XP! I have a GF 2 MX400, but one of my friends have recieved the same message as you did!!! He reinstalled the driver (the one for XP. 21.11) and then he were able to play!!!

Hope you get the Demo to run!!!

I have Windows XP and I got the same problem. All I did was that I went and grabbed the "OpenGLsetup" off of the net and installed it. Has been working beautifully ever since.

I figured out the solution for the problem running the game (or demo) in XP with a
nivida chipset.
First:
Update to the latest Detonator drivers for your NVidia card for windows XP/2000.
( http://www.nvidia.com/view.asp?PAGE=windows2000)
Version 23.11

Second:
After the install of the videodriver search
for these 2 files:
opengl32.dll (670Kb, dated 7 sept 2001) and
opengl32.lib (325Kb, dated 16 july 1996).
The can be found in the windowssystem32
directory.

Third:
Copy these 2 files into the game dir
x:Program FilesEA GAMESMOHAA
(x is your drive letter where the game is installed!)
overwriting the old files that were there.
(the old opengl32.dll is 717Kb)

Last step:
Remove the '3dfxgl.dll' from your game dir.
that should fix the problem. I believe the
engine tries to load the 3dfx drivers
first. I think when they did the RTCW code
they did not do a validity check to make
sure there was not another opengl driver
before erroring out.

After these steps MOHAA will work on XP too!!

Have fun people!!
