Does anyone know of a way to turn hardware acceleration on/off using OpenGL? How about a special DLL that''ll turn it off?

Why should anyone want to turn off hardware accel anyway? Btw isn''t the hardware accel one of the great pluses of OGL?

The reason is that one olf my superiors wanted to show the importance of hardware acceleration in a haptic (sense of touch) environment.

Thanks for the reply.
