OpenGL with Older Video Cards

Hello:

I am trying to run VPython, which uses GL. I have a PC running
WinXP Pro.
My computer had an AGP Nvidia GeForce2 MX 100/200 video card with
Driver Version: 5.6.7.3(that's what the Device Manager said). With
that card, I got this error message,
"pythonw.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are
sorry for the inconvenience.", and WinXP wants to send an error
message to Microsoft.
I downloaded the file from
Nvidia, but it (apparently) does not apply to my video board.
I am now using a PCI S3 ViRGE DX/MX, and I have the same problem.
I know this is old hardware, but VPython is the first program that has
not run on my computer.
I hope someone can tell me what I can do to solve this problem w/o
buying new hardware.
Thanks.
To reply directly to me, replace all 'z' with 'a' in email address.

44.03 supports Win9x and TNT1
71.89 supports XP and Geforce2
93.71 supports XP and Geforce4 and is the last with classic config tool

I am now using a PCI S3 ViRGE DX/MX, and I have the same problem.

There were never acceptable opengl-drivers for s3 at all and i think
for directx no drivers were available after 3.0.
