Hi Jonas,

To the best of my knowledge the OpenGL drivers are part of your video card
driver setup.

When I first tried running the official c++ demo on my machine, all I got was a
black display. Updating my video card drivers fixed the problem.

Also, I probably should have mentioned this from the Horde website:

"Horde3D requires a fully OpenGL 2.0 compatible graphics card. In terms of
DirectX that means a card supporting at least Shader Model 2.0 or better SM 3.0.
So the minimum hardware needed to run an application using Horde3D is a NVidia
GeForce FX or ATI Radeon 9500 graphics accelerator."

Finally, does it also fail on the included c++ version of the demo?
