Toxik > virtual machine >Mac Pro: "WGL_ARB_pixel_format not supported"?
by Rogier Chardet on Feb 28, 2009 at 1:13:53 am

I'm aware that questions regarding Toxik 2009 installed on a Vista Ultimate virtual machine* on a Mac Pro** are possibly too "fringe" for a response, but I'll give it a try...

The situation is such that I have been unable to open Toxik. Instead I get an error message regarding the: “WGL_ARB_pixel_format not supported”.

I'm assuming this is because I don't yet have a Nvidia Quadro card, but instead the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT. However, it had also been my assumption that until the graphic card upgrade, Toxik - like Maya - would run at 90%. This now seems incorrect, as it doesn't run at all.

Therefore, I wonder, will I be able to run Toxik 2009 when I have the Quadro card? Or are there other factors that prevent it from running on a virtual machine on a Mac Pro?

Thanks
