I have code from the OpenGLBook (openglbook.com) which compiles, but does not load. I have absolutely no idea why it\'s not loading. The code is as follows:

Answer 1

glutInitContextVersion(4, 2);

Does your current graphics driver actually support OpenGL 4.2? If not, then your window creation will fail. 4.2 is still rather new; try 4.1 instead.
