Hey, this is the first time I've looked here and discovered I can use up to 8 lights in a rendering... HA!

What do you mean they don't work? They should work within Chief. We check for that.

Norton? true to form if so...it is garbage ...***** up far too many of a systems resources...

if you haven't done so in those 15 months it is time to update your video driver...nvidia releases new drivers nearly every month...I just downloaded and installed nvidia's ltest driver..v84.21

At this point there is probably no reason to update unless you are seeing problems. It may be possible to update your video card drivers to get OpenGL 2.0, but that will offer no benefit in the current release of Chief over what you already have.

We're interested in seeing what features of OpenGL we can feasibly take advantage of in the future.

Thanks Tim,

With so many things to keep up on I just never thought about the drivers for my video card!

Following your opinion of Norton from a previous post I went with Bit Defender (antivirus), Zone Alarm (firewall) and Spyware Doctor 3.8 (antispyware). I did a lot of reading in PC Magazine (perhaps too much) and each is top rated. The opinion seemed to be that each program was excellent at one type of protection but weak in the others. I need to check again to make sure I have disabled all overlapping features. This may be another case of learning the hard way but I really have come a long way in the last year!

I just read the reply from Keith Jeffery that updating my drivers will not have a benefit?????????
