Hi Marco, Its really weird. I am pretty much sure we have tested this with Vista x64, but maybe not the latest drivers. May I send you simpified OpenGL only repro I have sent to NVidia as a bug report ? I am curious if the crash will happen with it as well ?

It is of course pretty dumb calling make current twice in quick succession on the same thread, but this were required due to an earlier bug on NVidia Windows drivers which thankfully has now been fixed in recent drivers. Kinda bizarre that a workaround for an NVidia driver bug breaks other version of NVidia drivers... Are they deliberately trying to break the OSG in any which way they can? This does suggest that it's time to set this workaround to off by default. Perhaps a better approach for this workaround would be to have a bool in GraphicsWindowWin32 that can be set at runtime, rather than something that is compiled in. This would allow driver version detection in clients apps that feel they need this workaround. An env var could also enable it too. Robert.
