Starry Night Open GL Pr new
      #2435725 - 06/02/08 06:50 PM

Has anyone found a fix for Starry Night Pro 6.2.3 and Quick Time 7.4 "Open GL" failure problem? I updated by accident to QT 7.4 and then had to Update to SNPP6.2.3 and now it does not work on a HP Zd7000 with NVIDIA Geforce 5700 graphics card. I deleted the "Perfs" folder and over wrote the NVIDIA driver but the program fails to open. It asks me to register then gives me a Green Check mark and proceeds to try and Inititalize Open GL then dies and closes. Starry Night Support does has not replied to my requests for help in a week and I think they are hiding. Jack.

FYI: I split this out from a previous thread in the hopes it would receive an answer, rather than be buried by material relating to that thread's topic.

If memory serves you have to downgrade back to at least Quicktime 7.3
