If you got an illegal op from Quake3 what makes you think you have a problem? Maybe it is a quake bug. Quake is a fairly old program and bugs/bad programming practises tend to show up if you use newer hardware and operating systems than when it was compiled. I like Unreal Tournament and I get General protection errors occasionally which I never did with older hardware, older non-beta video drivers and another operating system.
