so its not a opengl failure, but what else?oh, color depth is 32bit (aero skin@Vista )

Hmm, the GL_EXTENSIONS variable is oddly short. You might try the latest non-beta nvidia driver, and please use pastebin.com in the future.

ok, found the problem and here is my fix for all with the same problem (only for windows vista!):

1. download driver sweeper, here u go: http://www.guru3d.com/category/driversweeper/
2. disconnect your internet connection
3. run the program, clean up the hold nvidia shit
4. restart
5. install the newest driver, actually 180.48

done. enjoy!
