I have uninstalled the drivers and have installed several versions 11.4, 11.7,11.8,11.9 and beta 11.10. None of them have fixed this issue. I am running on an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870. There's nothing at the AMD site about that file. I don't know if the xx in the name is a place holder fora version number or an actual part of the file name. Has anyone had/heard/fixed this problem? The game is non-playable now. I have reverted to my older laptop but I don't want to stay on that computer. Any help would be appreciated. |

Hopefully you can decipher the posters instructions but there's a link to a hotfix in there.

atioglxx.dll is part of the OpenGL drivers for your video card and it sounds like it is not getting updated properly. I think a safer course of action would be to try one of the driver sweeper tools.
I'll look into a driver sweeper tool.
I did, however d/l the 11.10 preview version. Looking at the suggestion given to me above, the hotfix link didn't work. But I did look to see if apioglxx.dll was in the system directory and it wasn't. So, I copied the newest version I I had of the file 10/7/11 to both the system directory and the syswow64 directory.
Still bombed. Going to try a sweeper tool and a reinstall...

That worked!!
For future reference if anyone has this problem:
I d/l-ed the latest AMD driver. (which was 11.10 preview)
I d/l-ed Phyxion's driver sweeper program.
Uninstalled the driver (and removed files) using the control panel's devices tab/icon.
Rebooted in safe mode. Windows re-installed the driver. I uninstalled the driver again (and removed files) from the control panel just to be safe.
Ran the sweeper program.
Rebooted.
Windows re-installed the device. However, I ran the AMD install.
Rebooted the system as directed.
Checked the device and driver details. The driver date was 10/6/11. atioglxx.dll was located in the windows/sysWOW64 directory.
Started CoX with no error!
YAY!!!

I'm glad you were able to get it working. And I don't need any kids named after me.
