SDL hangs when using SDL_SetVideoMode with SDL_OPENGL as parameter

As the title says, my application hangs while running SDL_SetVideoMode, but only when i specify that I want to use OpenGL. Otherwise it initiates without any problem.

Edit: When waiting ~50 seconds, it manages to initiate.

Edit 2: Driver update solved it.

Code looks something like:

SDL_Init(SDL_INIT_VIDEO);
SDL_SetVideoMode(800, 600, 24, SDL_OPENGL);

Any ideas why this is happening?

Using Visual Studio 2010 and SDL/OpenGL libraries are linked as the should be (as far as i know).

That looks OK to me, are you sure it is not a drivers problem? Do you know for sure it crashes inside that function? And if so, did you use a debugger to see why/where it crashes?
