Aw crap! I upgraded to Windows 7 RC and I've got this same error. Direct X 10 is installed, I already updated graphics drivers and BIOS... before the upgrade my computer ran SG fine, so there's got to be a way now, doesn't there?
Anyone else running SG in Win7?
Edit: a few more details...
Integrated graphics on an old Dell machine, but it ran SG just fine when I had XP.
In Device Manager, under Display Adapters, it has the Intel(R)82865G Graphics Controller which is up-to-date.
openGL32.dll does exist in System32 folder.
