Very strange, considering that the 2.5 instructions worked for me as of a couple weeks ago. Can you try any other OpenGL software and see if that works? I'm wondering if there's something wrong with your display drivers. What video card do you have? Can you go the the manufacturer's website and download new drivers?

As far as the version I was using, I just grabbed everything linked to in the Download and install for windows section of for 2.4 i.e.: 

python-2.4.4.msi
Numeric-24.2.win32-py2.4.exe
numarray-1.3.3.win32-py2.4.exe
PIL-1.1.6.win32-py2.4.exe
PyOpenGL-2.0.2.01.py2.4-numpy23.exe
pygame-1.7.1release.win32-py2.4.exe
visionegg-1.0.win32-py2.4.exe

...anyways,
I just tried the download/install instructions for 2.5, (after uninstalling 2.4 and associated programs), and it still looks like I'm getting the same error.

    What VE version are you using, and which package did you download
    (exactly, if you can remember). Did you upgrade from an older
    version of
    anything?

    Finally, if it's an option, I have recently installed using the Python
    2.5/win32 instructions and verified that they work for me. That route
    might work better for you if you don't have too much software that
    couldn't stand a little upgrade...
