Looks like under some versions of Windows you need to as well to install 
GLUT dll to get OpenGL running. This can be downloaded from 
http://www.xmission.com/%7Enate/glut.html
If this is the reason that causes your problem, it is not a problem with 
python or pyopengl but something to do with windows ME not being 
prepared for OpenGL. I hope this solved the problem.

good luck
