I just posted what you may need in ALT.BINARIES.MISC
It's 12 parts and I used WinRAR v3.20 to compress it and made each
file 1.4 megs
If you don't have (or don't know how to use) WinRAR let me know and I
can upload a self-extracting file set.
Lemme know if this works, ok?

It is so much easier to post a link (and so much safer):

JB West : I've also tryed detonators version 44.03 (the lastest) but
nothing.
For opengl32.dll, I've downloaded the opengl95.exe file from
openGl.org then placed the uncompressed DLLs in my windows/system32
directory,as ever : nothing.
I noticed something wrong,I've downloaded SciTech GLDirect software
that normally allows OpenGl display using DirectX,but it didn't worked
also...I use DirectX 9.0 and it works normally(according to dxdiag).
Thank you for your support.

I recommend you uninstall everything opengl you have installed. You mightQuote:> Hi,

The only things you need for OpenGL support in Windows XP and with a GeForce
card are (verified on my wife's computer):
* Windows XP (preferably with SP1)
* nVidia drivers (12.41 is good for your card, but I bet 41.09 and 44.xx
also works nice)
And nothing else. With your system you don't need any motherboard drivers
either.
If any game is causing you trouble from now on, it's the game's fault and
not the drivers/os/hardware. See another thread mentioning removing a config
file in Quake3-engine-based games.

there is no nVIDIA opengl32.dll
opengl32.dll goes with OS, it contains GDI Generic software OpenGL
implementation and code to work with OpenGL implementation found in
drivers(it looks in registry key
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\OpenGLDrivers for dll name
of a driver, for nVIDIA this dll is namded nvoglnt).
that opengl32.dll is os-specific, and if replaced with wrong version wierd
things should happen.

I'd also like to add my 0.01 that 43.51 might cause grief with DVD playback
like how I discovered 44.03 does.
Yesterday I reinstalled PowerDVD 3 (reinstalled the 98SE partition of my PC
the other week and had forgot to put it back on with everything else) as I
wanted to watch a film.
I ran PowerDVD, clicked on the play button and some nonsense error popped up
claiming (I forget the exact wording now) that my "TV Out connector wasn't
working blah-blah, can't play your film".
What the heck?! That's a new one to me.
As I run my PC in 1600x1200 I full-well knew that the TV output selection in
the nVIDIA settings would be disabled (lo-and-behold, that was true) and I
wasn't even trying to WATCH the film on a TV!!
I did a bit of Googling and found out that these drivers, apparently, have
some form of extra Macrovision anti-copy protection in them, and as my video
card (Hercules 3D Prophet III GeForce3) unfortunately has a TV Out
connector, it's detecting the TV encoder chip and that's the reason it
fails. :-(
I could understand receiving the error *if* I was running in a more
'suspect' resolution (such as 640x480 or 800x600) *and* using the "TV"
output device instead of the default "Analogue Display".
Reluctantly, I uninstalled 44.03 and went back to 41.09.
Woo hoo! DVDs play again now and, fortunately, *Rayne still plays great!
:)
If there are any nVIDIA officials/driver developers lurking in these groups,
please please please take out whatever you've done to them. Like I have
said, I could appreciate the error message if I *were* using the TV Out, but
when it's plainly obvious that I'm wanting to watch a film on my monitor,
the error is just silly and inconvienient! :-(

Also check that this opengl32.dll (in system32) is produced by Microsoft
(right-click and select "properties" then "version")
