Help with 5.13 and Opengl
This is a discussion about Help with 5.13 and Opengl in the Windows Hardware category; Since I installed the 5. 13 drivers, my opengl doesn't run anymore and if I revert back to older drivers, it doesn't change anything. I'd like to avoid a clean install so does anybody has any idea on any way I could get my opengl back.

Hi,
hi,
I had the same problem but managed to fix it. Remove all your current drivers and make sure the files are removed from the system32 directory (nv*.dll, etc. but not nv4.dll). Also, search the oem*.inf files in the inf directory and remove the nvidia ones. then reboot.
now reinstall the nvidia drivers you want to use and opengl should be working. I don't know if all of those steps are neccesary, but it fixed mine.
hope this helps,

Now I don't know if this will fix it, but I have the Viper V770 and after I installed 5.13 my OpenGL ran, but it ran REALLY slow. The old OpenGL drivers didn't work, but finally I fixed it with the tweak utility.
Just go into Display Properties >> Setting >> Advanced >> RIVA TNT2 (on mine) >> Additional Properties ... >> OpenGL Settings and change Vertical sync: to 'Off by default' and presto! my OpenGL ran just as fast as ever
