Quick question. In your FH folder, do you have this DLL?:
RenderSystem_GL.dll

@Moontwist-  I appreciate the tutorial link! I tried it out, but my computer only has 1 core, so it didn't work for me. Thank you though! :)

@Crusoe- Yes I do.

And you also have tried installing FH into a new directory (i.e C:\NewFH)?

Yep, I've tried literally everything, lol. Still no luck though, it's probably just an issue with my computer, it really wouldn't surprise me. Thank you though :)

Have you installed graphics drivers on your computer? i.e Nvidia control panel, AMD Catalyst, Intel HD Drivers, etc.?

Although not directly related to FH, I've had problems running Zandronum or GZDoom under OpenGL after a clean installation of Windows, as they would crash. The problem was fixed after I installed my video drivers.

FH will usually automatically optimize to either OpenGL or Direct3D9, perhaps your computer literally cannot handle OpenGL. While it doesn't effect too much visually, it is supposed to enhance your play experience with slightly better graphics and less lag.



You are amazing <3

Have you recently update them? If so, did FH then begin to fail launching in OpenGL?

You can also try updating Windows using the Windows Update utility.

Odd that it handled OpenGL really well and then suddenly one day went kerplooey though. And my computer has been up to date with everything, as soon as an update becomes available. I don't believe its anything to do with my drivers nor my system as far as updates are concerned. This computer is barely over 3 months old. I believe it's just that my graphics card can no longer deal with itself anymore, to be honest with you. The "Intel HD Graphics" card is pretty lame as far as being able to run any sort of games, online as well as offline. I'll just have to get a newer and better computer later on. Until then, I'll deal with the lag on Direct. Thanks though~ <3
