i don't think it's buggy driver, this happens as far as i know for various people, so i'd guess various cards/drivers. Is there a way to track down what AutoCAD returns in this call to glGetString on Windows? Btw, the installer even finishes fine with native opengl32.dll ( no, this is not a joke!), so somehow i have the feeling that an exception handler is the right way anyway, but i lack knowledge of opengl, so i'll shut up for now ;) ) __________________________________________________________ Not happy with your email address?.
