I know millions of others have probably gotten this error, but I need help with it too. I don't know how else to explain it, but this shows up every time I try to run SRB2 2.0.6 in OpenGL mode.

EDIT: I looked in the log and saw "GetLastError: Invalid access to memory location." What does it mean?

1. That integrated chipset is nowhere near what you need to run SRB2 in OpenGL. Get a discrete graphics card (any one that supports OpenGL will do.)

2. Is r_opengl.dll actually in the SRB2 directory? If its 2.0.6, it should be... I think
 
1. Unfortunately, the only way I can get a better graphics card is by getting another computer that has a dedicated graphics card, and I'm not about to drop money I don't have on another computer.

2. r_opengl.dll is indeed in the SRB2 directory
 
Your computer has a built-in slot for putting in a graphics card, pretty much every one available can run SRB2 well, even the cheapest ones can run it well at low-to-mid resolutions.
