problem with opengl2.0

[Belhawk]

just recently, last day or two, a started having a problem playing KotOR 1 and 2. I found out that my opengl is dropping to 1.1 from 2.o. I was using 77.56 when the problem started, and just a few minutes ago I tried xg80.40 and still got the same problem. I deleted the old driver using add/remove programs, reboot, install new drivers, reboot, check KotOR 2 scan hardware and it says that it passes including having opengl 2. I go answer the call of nature and come back and suddenly I can't play the game. so I check again and now my hardware fails, opengl is now 1.1!

Does anyone have any ideas.

 

I do have spysweeper, lastest version going, and it listed 6 items to ask if I want to keep, but suddenly dropped to 3 items.

I'm rock solid on the 80.40 drivers. Try using a free program called Driver Cleaner. Just do a google search for it. That removes all traces of previous installed drivers from your graphics card. Run it...reboot...cancel the "Found New Hardware" windows annoyance & just run the set up from the 80.40 drivers, or any other version that you feel comfortable with.

I added asus enhanced driver to go with asus smartdoc, and when I looked and tested one of the settings, for improving movie pics, but started KotOR2 instead, and that must of messed things up, because when I removed both then the problems stopped.
