HI EVERYBODY! I TRIED TO INSTALL OPENGL 1.0.0.118. IT WAS FOR WINDOWS 98 SO I RAN IT IN COMPATIBLE MODE FOR WIN98(I HAVE WIN XP). IT ALL WENT WELL, IT EXTRACTED SOME FILES ON MY COMPUTER, THEN IT WENT TO THE INSTALLATION. JUST WHEN THE INSTALLATION WAS ABOUT TO START, I RECEIVED AN ERROR: Could not load the DLL library D:\Program Files\GLSetup\GLMatch.dll The specified procedure could not be found. I CHECKED, AND THE FILE WAS THERE, AND ALL THE FILES HAD THEIR NAME CORRECT. PLEASE HELP ME. P.S.: I DONT HAVE INTERNET ON MY COMPUTER, I HAVE THIS SETUP FROM A FRIEND. I AM WRITING NOW FROM MY PHONE(I HAVE INTERNET ON PHONE).

Hi Alex, welcome to the forums.
Please don't type in capitals as it makes it very hard to read
What do you need to install OpenGL for? The required DLL's should come with any game that uses it (I'm guessing it's an old game?) and the graphics drivers, so there's no need to install them manually. Can you explain a little bit more information on the situation, and we'll see what we can do

.I am sorry about the capitals. Well i don't know too much about OpenGL. But a lot of games need OpenGL. My friend gave me Alone In The Dark, wich came with an OpenGL setup, and the things above happened. Yes, indeed most games have their own dll's, but many games need OpenGL. I have many such games and i want to try them out. Wat do i have to do to have OpenGL installed? I also have a folder wich contains some files(glu.dll, opengl.dll, glu.lib, i will give you the complete list later, now I am on a rush). Where do I have to put these files, in order for my games to work? I may sound stupid, and correct me if i said something stupid, but i really need your help. Thanks in advance.
Okay, so i need to update my driver, but i don't have internet. But i have some OpenGL files: gl.h; glaux.h; glu.h; opengl32.lib; glu32.lib; glaux.lib; glu32.dll and opengl32.dll are in the windows folder. But where do i have to place the lib and the h files, because the only way i see, is to install them manualy. I don't need OpenGL for programming, i just need it to run some games.
