Make sure that you video drivers are up to date. www.nvidia.com for NVidia
chipset boards.(you didn't specify video card info)

Make sure your on board chipset drivers are up to date.
(Example: VIA chipset http://www.viaarena.com/ or www.via.com.tw )
(SiS chipset is at www.sis.com or www.sis.com.tw )

Run dxdiag.exe from the start,run menu and make sure you have no errors.

Suggestion: when have any other issues give hardware details to specific
problem.
OpenGL is graphic/video. Give video card info and motherboard info as well.
The motherboards have chipsets that are controllers for graphics,disk
drives,ports...etc.
This will better help in quickly resolving issues.

Hope this helps.

OpnGL is video.
Sounds like a driver problem.
Go get the latest drivers for your card.

I had the same problems.It means your video-card does not support open-glide
or you do not have the latest drivers.Try to find the latest drivers.

I had the same problem - It was a result of another installed game not being
properly removed.

On your desktop hit F5 key and search for all files on my computer
containing the words "OpenGL".

Delete these and reinstall MOH, and video card driver (latest).

That fixed my problem,.

Your video graphics card may not be sufficient to play the game.
Updating the drivers may indeed help in some cases, but often times
motherboards come with their own video cards built in--cheap or
insufficient ones that do not allow game play.

Go out and buy a GeForce or nvidia graphics card with at least 32 mb
(64 or 128 is better). MOHAA is a game relying heavily on hardware
for computations and rendering--the better the graphics card, the
better the gaming experience.
