Hi, I have a big problem: when I start an OpenGL-app there appears a message box saying something about a "missing Export-GDI32.dll:GdiSwapBuffers" and I chan't start the application. It always worked and I have no idea what I have done wrong or what I could do to fix it. Would be glad if anyone of you could help me, please! btw: I have the file "GDI32.dll" in my "windows/system", so it's not really missing. [edited by - Bero_Avrion on May 18, 2003 8:03:40 AM]
Post the window creation code.

thanx, but it doesn''t matter how the window is created, it appears with EVERY application using OpenGL. I tried it with the NeHe tuts, HalfLife etc. - it''s always the same error.
Hey, I got it fixed! just had to download the "OpenGL32.dll" (from www.dll-files.com) and replace my old one in the "c:\windows\system"-folder. seems like my GDI32.dll and the old OpenGL32.dll were incompatible.
I hope if some of you have the same problem, this will help.
