Are your graphics drivers up to date? What is your graphics card?

its not my computer though in looking through it I can definitely say the drivers are not up to date... so I'll see if i can get them updated and try again.

There should be a line at the top of your log file too with some info on your video card... can you post that?

That error message indicates one of two things:
1) The video card drivers are not updated, or
2) The video card/device does not support OpenGL 1.3, which appears to be the minimum level required for OpenGL with 1.7.2. (Was supposed to be 1.1, but that case wasn't tested)

But you are able to find copies of Myth2 on eBay and Amazon.

Try to update the drivers. Though I don't know why I was able to run it on my laptop which hasn't been updated for like a year now.
