open GL issue?

[homer]

Hi Radience et all

I'm dying to try out this amazing program but get the error message below. I've run the CUDA testing app and everything seems fine there .. what am I doing wrong?

Mods,

Apologies. I've just realised I've posted this in the wrong forum.

have you installed the correct drivers as outlined in the readme that comes with the demo version ?

Hi Radiance,

I'm sure I've followed everything in the readme. Downloaded the CUDA testing app (s/s below) and everything seems fine there. All other drivers are up to date. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

You are using the nvidia 190.38 driver? and Octane8000.exe?

btw is that XPsp3?

Hi Pixelrush
Thanks for the prompt response.
Unfortunately the answer is yes to all your questions.

Hi,
Well that's frustrating and disappointing.
I'm not sure what's wrong there.
I'm not an expert only a user like you.
I found a utility application to test openGL.

If you want to corner the issue you could try using that to see if there is anything obviously wrong.
Other than that is the card an unusual brand perhaps?

[radiance]

can you show us a screenshot of your driver versions ?

I'm running the same video card but on Win XP pro x64 SP2. Not had this Open gl error at all.

Have just checked latest driver available for GForce 8800 GTX is 195.62, which I haven't yet installed or tested with Octane.


190.38 doesn't report opengl error message though.
