The versions of Exceed and Exceed 3D must match, which may be the problem you are seeing. The system I tried opendx on has a Matrox Millenium G200 and just Exceed. I will be trying Exceed 3D to see how well or poorly opengl does on that card. You can test Exceed 3D independently using some of the sample clients they provide.
I have used the last commercial version on various Intergraph (now Intense3D) cards, including the one you mentioned. They work just fine with Exceed 6.0 and Exceed 3D 6.0. I've not yet tried opendx with the machine I currently have with an Intergraph card (4100), pending delivery of 6.2 for both. Yeah, the font and colors have to go...

I have Exceed 3D installed. I'm not positive whether "Exceed" and "Exceed 3D" are one and the same. When I choose "Help About Exceed" from the task menu, I get "Exceed for Win32 Version 6.2.0.0". But when I launch (either Exceed or OpenDX), the startup screen says "Exceed 3D V6.0". The problem is simple: when I try to switch an Image window Rendering Options to "Hardware", I get an error in DX message window "ERROR: Image: Display: Operation not implemented: GLX extension not installed". What am I missing here? (this net and others work fine using software rendering, by the way). Is this something we did wrong when Exceed got installed? Or is there a hardcoded link to an Exceed 'extensions' directory that is different on my machine than the one this version was built on? (Suhaib: are you using Exceed 3D?) I should mention that I have this video card in a Dell 410: Intense 3D Pro 3410-GT; that's a couple years old, so maybe there's a GL incompatibility (?). Thanks! So close... (but those khaki colored modules have to go! I see the font issue that Lloyd brought up: but I've got to find how to remap the X-colors here: yuck!). (:-0 Nevertheless, thanks for persisting Suhaib and getting things this far. Not having to get cygwin installed and configured made this one go a lot easier. If anyone is having install problems, I'm suspicious about including directory names that include space characters, so I did not install OpenDX under "Program Files" much as I would have preferred to, but directly under C: as Suhaib had it in the README. I also would have liked to put this in a directory called "OpenDX 4.1.1" but resisted that urge as well and named it "OpenDX". This made the initial startup very painless since I didn't have to muck with the supplied bat files.
