    So I am trying to play Medal of Honor Allied Assault [Doom 3 Engine?](I know, old skool) on my new MSI GX600. I am getting an error that OpenGL isn't working, and I believe that this is due to my system not having OpenGL.

    Here's My System
    -Intel Core 2 Duo T9300
    -4 Gb ram
    -Geforce 8600m GT 512mb

    As far as I know the only way to get OpenGL is through Nvidia Drivers. I have tried downloading through Nvidia, and have had zero luck getting anything at all. I turned to laptopvideo2go and was able to install the ForceWare 181.00 drivers (latest).

    I still can't get this to work. Do I have the correct drivers? Is there some way to check if OpenGL is installed/working?

    Thanks
    Tony
