I can't run games on my Vista laptop. 
When I try to run, let's say; Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas or anyother game, nothing happens.
There's no error message, only nothing happens.
I have just gotten the Windows Vista Home Basic, because I had Linux for a while, but I got tired of it and returned to Vista.
I have tried:
Scan the computer for Viruses.
Run as Admin
Alter MSCONFIG (there was nothing to alter though)
and no, I am trying to run the exe file, and not a shortcut.
Any clue how to solve this???
I have asked everywhere, but nothing helps
EDIT: Oh yeah, when I try to run Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, I says in the "ET Console box"
"GLW_StartOpenGL () - could not load OpenGL subsystem".
