Has anyone found how to get OpenGL to function in Vista on a iMac?
I have used both the Built-in Vista drivers and the set from the ATI site and both don't include OpenGL.
One of the gams I would like to use installs but doesn't run as it complains that OpenGL isn't functioning, for some reason it needs BOTH DirectX and Open GL it worked fine with XP.

I do like Vista MUCH more than XP though, especially the new version of IE.

I haven't used Vista on a Mac, but try installing Apple's drivers. OpenGL should be in Microsoft's WDM in the final version, but they may not be ready yet as Microsoft has to abstract OpenGL against DirectX, which sadly will slightly slow down OpenGL.

ATi, nVidia, and others will provide native OpenGL drivers for Vista.

Right, which is why I said Microsoft's WDM has to be abstracted. I didn't say ATI and nVidia's had to be abstracted.
