Thanks a lot for the patch. I've applied it with some modifications.
The fix will be available in the next maintenance release.

Thanks,
Mikhail

There have been some reports regarding the 3d acceleration option being

are particularly relevant.

Seems revision 39412 brought in the use of a API function that is only 
available to Vista or newer hosts, and the DLL (VBoxOGLrenderspu) that was 
affected by the change would not be able to load on older versions of Windows.

The attached patch should resolve the issue by using a more common function 
instead of the Vista/newer one.

Since I do not have an ATI card, I cannot fully verify the effectiveness of my 
patch.
