Title: Quake 3 Arena!!
Post by: 420_247_365 on March 04, 2002, 09:05:59 AM
Is there anyway to run Quake 3 arena in Windows 2000?
Is there an open gl setup update somewhere or is there no chance in ever getting it to work?
thanx for your help.

Why do use windows 2k ? Its crap for gaming. Go back to Win98, or XP (if u have ram for it)

i want to load it at my work place but they run win 2000 thats it and  i cant use 98 for Autocad and Pro E cause it would be too slow.
Are there any fixes or patches i could use?

Don\'t you just love all the great input you can find here at the central?  

I wish I could help you, but I don\'t know Windows 2000.

I was just replying because I was wondering if that was your social security number.  I need a new credit card.

sad sad vid

thats not his social

it stands for smoke weed 24 hours a day /7 days a week 365 days a year

but anyway like they said Win2k isnt for gaming - its a nice OS but XP is the way to go - but have at least 256mb ram if that - i need to upgrade to 512 soon

*back to topic*

*non-sarcastic reply*

quake 3 will run FINE on windows 2000
you probably DO NOT have a open GL supported card at work and thats why it wont work

Well for a non humorous reply.
You are most likely running with the default Win2k drivers, MS doesn\'t include OpenGL support in it\'s defaults. Just get the newest drivers from your vid card manufactorer

I have my Dreamcast running QIIIArena sitting on top of my computer. That\'s how I got it to run on Windows 2000. Other than a sarcastic reply, I\'d say go with mm\'s solution. Fragging on the clock is a great why to get fired. Nice idea there brainiac.. smoke some more of this while yer at it.....
