Apparently you are tried run Stellarium for Windows 7 on Windows XP.

Thanks again Alex... made progress, but now I got this message... No OpenGL 2 found on system, use MESA or Older Version. Am I done or can I do something else. Has my system gone the way of the Dodo bird?
| Larry (grm-x) said : | #5 |
Yes, still a problem. The graphics card I have is a Radeon X600 256MB HyperMemory... not sure what all this means but I followed the instructions in FAQ to identify the card... Does it means that Stellarium will not work with what I have or do I need to use a different version (as in older)?
| Alexander Wolf (alexwolf) said : | #6 |
Version 0.12.6 is upper for this graphics card.

It means that 2004 hardware on a dead OS cannot be expected to run 2015 software. More in this FAQ:
FAQ #2570: “Common problems with version 0.13”.
Can you help with this problem?
Provide an answer of your own, or ask Larry for more information if necessary.
