GL_ARB multitexture?

Posted on: 2009-07-20 10:29 in ALL ACCESS Gameplay Technical Issues Bugs
Video drivers are the problem.
Uninstall the 186.18 drivers. Download the 185.85 drivers from here. Download Guru3D's DriverSweeper, reboot into Safe Mode, run DriverSweeper, reboot into normal mode and install the 185.85 drivers.
If you are still having problems, post a HijackThis log so that we can see what else is running.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

And if that doesn't work, go to the website of your motherboard's manufacturer and see there are new drivers for the motherboard chipset/CPU/BIOS.

well finally got it to work, it was a driver issue.
although it took alot more than what texas justice said, but that was due to vista trying to download the new nvidia drivers no matter what i had its update settings at, and driver sweeper not being able to completely delete a reg section of the driver install. the durned thing had reset its address to 00000000. drove me up a wall for about 3 hours yesterday. 
but ty for the advice and help

I am an old player trying to return and since I quit this game I installed a new video card.
Now when I try to start the game i get two errors.
The first is:
You card or driver doesn't support GL_ARB_multitexture
The second is:
You card or driver doesn't support GL_ARB_texture_compression
I did just update my video card drivers and the errors occurred before and afterwords. Any help figuring out why this is happening and how to fix it would be appreciated.
Gonna include this short help file also:
