Aloha. I used to play quake every waking hour a while back. I want to get back into it but I have since upgraded to windows 2000. I have a home built computer. Asus P2B-F with 256 MB of PC 133 ram, a SB Live Value Sound Board and an ATI Xpert 128 with 16 MB of Memory. I have the bus overclocked at about 111 Mhz giving my 450 MHZ PIII a speed of about 500 MHZ. I have quake II updated to 320. When I launch quake I get a screen that is a pretty orange and appears to be at a resolution of 320 x 240. The video stays like this. I can hear the sounds of the opening demo but the video never appears. I am using the most updated driver from ATI. I should note that it is not certified by microsoft. I am thinking that maybe I should go back to the stock ATI driver that comes with Windows 2000. I have a Matrox G200 that I could throw in there, but it only has 8MB of memory. Any help on getting ATI working with Quake II and Windows 2000 would be appreciated! If possible send any info to ati@schulznet.com Thanks and Aloha
