Recently i had the same problem my drivers was up to date but my ET doesnt let me in.

So i solved it for me and wanted to share what steps i/you have to follow .

Most times you will get this OpenGL error
1. If you got a new Computer , reseted it whatever .
2. If you got a new Config.

> Hopefully this will help : 1: Make sure your Drivers are up to date -> Press Right Click on >Computer< then go to >Options(the one at bottom incase of other languages> Over there you watch at left Side for Device Manager press it and select Graphic Card ,and press Update Drivers.

2. Incase you got a new Config search for this line in it :

seta r_mode "6" this cvar is setting your Resolution

this OpenGL error is nothing else then a Resolution error .

This Numbers mean diffrent Resolutions but no clue what is what just try it out =)
So well just lower the Number by 1 in this case its 6 so do it 5 .

After you have changed it save and close your Conifg,

With this cvar changes i got my OpenGL error solved yesterday i hope i could and will help People in the Future.

If anyone got any Questions feel free to ask me .

Just above Rag3 gives very relevant solutions. Especially for graphic configuration.

But if you still experience the problem you can also:

[1] Check the consistency between the different graphics mode and corresponding resolutions:

//seta r_mode "X" (default modes):
//0 - 320 x 240
//1 - 400 x 300
//2 - 512 x 384
//3 - 640 x 480
//4 - 800 x 600
//5 - 960 x 720
//6 - 1024 x 768
//7 - 1152 x 860
//8 - 1280 x 1024
//9 - 1600 x 1200
//10 - 2048 x 1536
//11 - 856 x 480 (wide)

//For custom height and width:
//seta r_mode -1

//Example of custom FullHD resolution:
seta r_mode -1
seta r_customwidth 1920
seta r_customheight 1080
seta r_fullscreen 1
__________________________________________________

[2] Reinstall the game over the current one.

Just don't forget to backup your etkey because your GUID, XP, rank etc. depends of it. Your .cfg's and downloaded content will still untouched.

Note that if you don't use custom cfg that set up (automatically or manually) your command,graphic,sound,network parameters, those will be returned to their default values.
_________________________________________________

[3] Update DirectX.

If your current DirectX installation is corrupted it may cause conflics with OpenGL

[4] Present to your computer a few cocktails Molotov.
