    could not load OpenGL subsystem

    That shit comes up when I want to play my new game: Call Of Duty.
    What the hell is that? The game took all of my money, and now it doesn't work.
    Any idea how to fix this?

    open GL came in with cards like nvidia Gforce etc.It opens up new possibilities for playing games.

    Might be time to invest with a more upto date card , one that supports open GL AS there are more and more games now that require this function, but then you'll probably need a machine that can handle said graphics card
