Hi John, I checked my OpenGL32.dll files, and they are all Microsoft versions, including the one in the system32 folder. The version number is 5.1.2600.2180. On the v5.61 Help Menu -> About OpenGL it says that the vendor is ATI, and the OpenGL version from library is 2.0.6390. The graphics do seem a little slow, especially when compared with v5.2. If I get the ATI version of OpenGL32.dll, will that improve the graphics?
