It turns out that my BIOS had changed from the factory defaults and when I restored them my G460 works great in opengl and everything else. Diamond was especially helpful even though they could not help me directly and I found the solution through luck. I appreciate the many responses I got and I assure you no matter how strange I tried every solution. Hope in some twisted way this may help someone. The only suggestion I have is keep posting (and play with your BIOS settings) I also tried Age of Empires and played for 15 mins no problem. Don't have motoracer... sorry.
