      Compaq 8510W
      Winxppro32. HP8510.
      100gb 7200rpm drive.
      Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7500 @2.20GHz
      2.0gb memory
      NVIDIA Quadro FX 570M

      I installed Wine.
      I installed Sketchup.
      I tried to open Sketchup's desktop icon as "Administrator" but Mint did not respond at all.
      Usually Admin is preferred when licensing a product.
      I simply opened Sketchup as with left click, licensed it, and proceeded to choose template.
      I was greeted immediately with...

      Sketchup was unable to initialize OpenGL!
      Pleas make sure you have installed the correct drivers for your graphics card.
      Error: ChoosePixelFormat failed.

      My card has the most recent driver.

        you need to change the windows registry (google search for "sketchup openGL wine")

        @unknownuser said:

        If you get the error "SketchUp was unable to initialize OpenGL!], run regedit, open [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\SketchUp6\GLConfig\Display], and change "HW_OK" to 1.
