has anyone had any problems developing on the WindowsXP OS, I just upgraded and found that my two programs no longer work!!! The hardware, Voodoo3 3500 TV The problem, While createing a windowed application, when I call swapBuffers, the entire screen goes black!!! I checked an old program which runs very similar code, and this has the same problem even though it was fine on Win2K!! Any ideas??

I downloaded the Detenator drivers and everything works fine for me. Before that OGL ran at about 1 frame per 10 seconds.

The problem is that XP''s default OGL drivers do **NOT** support hardware acceleration. If you are distributing OGL apps, you need to make sure you give your customers access to GLSetup, or some other means of getting the latest drivers for their card. Just another reason I don''t care to ''downgrade'' to XP.
