Open GL start up problems.

[Aharon Rabinowitz]

I hate to do this, becasue I only know how to diagnose the issue, but not solve it – this has definately been answered in the forum:

Go into this directory:

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe After Effects 7.0\Support Files\Plug-ins\Standard\Extensions

ANd TEMPORARILY move the OpenGL plugin to your desktop or somewhere outside that folder.

then try starting it up again.

If it starts up there is an openGL issue, or the plug in has become corrupt. If not, it’s not that plug in or your video card. Copuld be as simple as updating your video card driver.

Sorry I can’t be more help. But search – there definitely is a solution.

It may be as simple as trashing your preferences (do a search here for more info). Preferences can be found here: C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Application Data\Adobe\After Effects\7.0

Anyone else?

Hi Aharon …

I did this before and it worked for me, but i moved the openGL again to the original folder.
the question is is the AE closed while openGL in the splash screen, i mean while reading your plugins and stoped in openGL, if yes so this is the right solution if not …..
