thnx in advance, kinda regards. warhead

Hmmm, you probably could run it in Software mode... this is on a notebook? what speed and how much ram?
You could install Win98 in addition to Win2k.Quote:

You wouldn't experience these problems.

Quake 2 will run just fine on Windows 2000 pro. See the 2 websites in my signature for more tips and compatability issues.

For all yer win2k gaming compatability and gaming tip needs check out www.win2kgamer.com and www.ntcompatible.com
Just as a rule of thumb, i never upgrade my operating system unless i have to in order to support new hardware or get rid of bugs. Im still using Win98 SE, and I can run any game I want to.
