Ok. I went to Nvidia and found the driver I needed to fix OpenGL. When I clicked, the download, I got the license user agreement and did it. After that, I got a window that was totally blank except a few Ads for Nvidia software. A few seconds later, I got a window that had the little square/triangle/cirlcle symbol in the corner. How do I know if I actually downloaded the software or not?

It usually says you need to restart your computer.

You should have gotten a pic of it.

Also, usually the download comes with a file version. Check your Nvidia manager, and match the current version with the installation. If they match, installation was successful.

There's a link in SRO at the front page with a link to the new nvidia drivers, and yes, they do work.

If you're having problems with the driver, just roll it back. Having the latest driver doesn't always work. I updated my driver and I couldn't play Halo, but when I rolled it back to the way it was, I could.
