Hi there.  I am running Quake (the first one) and it keeps locking up
randomly.  I only play it over the internet, so I don't know whether
that's related.  The screen freezes up and the sound keeps looping.
Sometimes it unfreezes but usually not.  Another problem I have been
having is that sometimes the screen will get real fuzzy and blocky, to
the point that I can't read the scroll thingie.

I am running  version 1.09 of Quake and I am using Glide 0.97.  I have
a Pentium 133 with 48 MB RAM, and 150 MB of virtual memory. I have a
Matrox Millenia 2D card, and a Voodoo 8 MB card.

Any ideas on what the problem might be?  I would sure appreciate any
help you could pass along.
