Anyone successful running samples for Windows 98 ?

Hi, Folks. I have downloaded samples for MFC for Windows and all modules for Windows NT (DEBUG version). After unzip and setup all environment variables as mentioned in FAQ 1.10 such as CSF_GRAPHICSHR, I encountered "fatal error in graphics initialization" when I tried to run all the sample exe files.

So, I tried to debug it and discovered that everytime the LoadLibraryEx is called to load Opengl.dll (supplied with the modules), it failed and the error returned is 31 A device attached to the system is not functioning. I am very confused and all samples failed to load opengl.dll with LoadLibaryEx in file OSD_SharedLibrary.cxx.

Can anyone help with this problem. Any help or sharing of ideas are greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

Hello Jack,

As you can read in this FAQ, you must set all environment variables.

This error message indicates that the variable csh_graphicshr is not set correctly. So verify that all variables are set and that in the file config.sys the environment space is correctly configured as explained in the windows9x FAQs

best regards
