I've searched and found several questions but no solution so far.
Xmbc started popping up a message that it needs hardware opengl support while it used to work. I'm not sure what has changed though.
I'm running Debian 7.2 64-bit with NVidia drivers installed. As far as I can tell everything is oke?
Any suggestions what I can do to fix this?
Thanks!

/var/log/Xorg.0.log will tell you whether the nvidia driver is being loaded.

Have you installed the drivers using apt or manually? This problem usually pops up if you've gotten a Linux kernel update but haven't rebooted into the new kernel. If you restart X while still on the old kernel the Nvidia driver shits its pants.
I usually install the driver manually instead of apt, that way I can easily choose which version I want.

From apt but I hadn't received any updates recently at least no kernel stuff.
I had to reinstall earlier today because I messed up a restore. I was able to reinstall most applications and restore their settings, xbmc is working again just need to look into lirc, remote isn't working properly yet.
Thanks anyways for the help guys, shame we didn't figure out what this really was.

if you have this issue again try 'apt-get install fglrx'.
I don't know if it will work for you but it worked for me.
