Mantan, Monster had a similar problem that was cured by updating video card drivers. I guess a good place to start is what video card are you using?
If it is a Radeon or a GeForce, I'm sure an update will probably get it to work.
It *could* be the operating system. You might trying adding -window -startwindowed to the command line and seeing if it crashes.Last edited by Baker; 09-05-2006, 02:10 AM.Quakeone.com - Being exactly one-half good and one-half evil has advantages.

I agree. There should have been a class action suit with that ME version.

This happens to me with any version of Quake, with Win XP SP2 and nVidia drivers version 91.31
The solution is to hit Win+L to go to the welcome screen, then go back.16:03:04 <gb> when I put in a sng, I think I might need nails
16:03:30 <gb> the fact that only playtesting tells me that probably means that my mind is a sieveComment

this used to happen to me too, with good drivers.
solution: use a GL client.Comment

If I remember right, there was some kind of memory leak or something to that effect. I knew of them patching it through Microsoft Update. May be relevant.
Windows ME was the only OS I never owned.
I will find you... it's only a matter of time.Comment

Gunter, not registered here, says to add -nowindirect to your command line. This might possibly fix the problem your having.Comment
