idata · ‎04-01-2013

Hello everybody !

I'm a french user therefore DO NOT pay attention to my bad grammar.

I've actually install DOOM 3 BFG Edition but got a problem when i try to run it.

The error is "Unable to initialize Open GL" and the following message appears :

I recommend you check the requirements for playing DOOM with the game manufacturer, and also the OpenGL support page:

Thank you for your reply !

Actually, my laptop doesn't seem to have the requirements for playing DOOM, indeed...

For those who got the same error, here is a link from Steam Community which explain how can you fix it (Only if your system is NOT outdated like mine...).
