Hi I am using a Nvidia Geforce4 MX440 64MB graphic card to dusplay stereo images. The program compiles well but when I try to execute it, it comes up with an error message saying - GLUT: Fatal error in H:\code\Debug\stereo.exe: pixel format with necessary capabilities not found.
I was wondering if anyone could help me to solve this problem, whether there is somethins wrong with the code or I need to do enable some settings for the graphic card.
Thanks alot

This is the code… so I am wrong in the code !!!
