Please can somebody help me, i'm having problems running Quake 3 arena on windows 2000, using a pentium 3 600mhz, Voodoo 3500 graphics card, other games run fine i.e Unreal Tournament, Soldier of fortune.
I installed the beta 3 drivers from win2kgames.com.
Basically when i try to start Quake 3 Arena, i get an error message saying "glw_start open gl - could not load open gl subsystems."
I went to the homepaghe for activision and it told me to run GLSetup, which is on the c.d. This i tried but when i do it tells you that it does not support win2k, i went to there web site on www.glsetup.com and there it has the following message: "Unsupported operating system, GLSetup only runs on Windows 95 and 98 due to time constraints. Windows NT support is planned for future releases. If you're running an operating system unsupported by GLSetup, please go to the IHV pages to visit your card vendor's website to see if they provide drivers for your platform."
The thing is in the games compatibility section in www.win2kgames people have wrote in and said that the game workd in windows 2000 using the voodoo 3500 graphics card, so please could anyone tell me how to get it working.
My e-mail address is: ibrar786@hotmail.com
Many thanks.
