Download the v3.78 W2K drivers from Nvidia.com, install, reboot. :}

OP
Its the Nvidia 3.78 drivers that are the problem, they stink, i eventually got Q3 to run using SMP with the NT4 Geforce Drivers forcebly installed, i can`t use D3D or Opengl under the 3,78, and under the NT4 i can use OpenGL but no D3D,
 
any ideas??

It works fine on my system. Quake 3 running smoothly, occasional lock up when starting the game (probably Nvidia driver not fully optimized for SMP). Unreal ran fine on my system, and infact it flies. MS Flight simulatro works fine.
