Re: weird demo problem
Could also be if he doesn't have OpenGL drivers up to snuff for his graphics card.

Re: weird demo problem
Have him update his video card drivers... I recall Windows Vista had some openGL issues which needed updates.

Re: weird demo problem
A friend of mine used --noglext to get around the problem of having a no-so-good video card, you might want to try that if that option is available on Windows.

Re: weird demo problem
This --noglext thing, what is it? I've read in some threads around here about it, but when my friend tries to run it, he only gets a message that it cannot be found.

Re: weird demo problem
Well, me and my pal played a hotseat game of Dominions 3 and he really liked it!
But the problem is still unsolved and I know that I wouldn't like to pay 50 bucks for something that still won't work.
