Simon Says 0 Posted June 17, 2000 Matrox has currently nixed the idea of creating a turbogl patch for Win2K. Thus, Q3 won't run and proclaims an Open GL error. Any ideas? Is there a work-around? Would love to see the performance possiblity and stability of Win2K. Thanks. ------------------ Quote: Elementary, my dear Watson. Share this post Link to post
euankirkhope 0 Posted June 17, 2000 the "performance and stability of win2000" doesn't apply to playing games.

DosFreak 2 Posted June 17, 2000 Quake 3 runs fine under NT, even better than 9x. Ignore the post above mine. Share this post Link to post
Gambler FEX online 0 Posted June 22, 2000 I second that. I have dual p3 and a g400 max and it is smooth and fast. It's faster in win98 because the win98 opengl ICD is more optimized, but still it is very nice in win2k. I play it very often. You may need to rename a opengl.dll file in you quake 3 folder, or install the latest win2k beta drivers for your g400 max. http://www.matrox.com/mga/drivers/latest_drivers/home.htm also visit the Matrox technical support forum for more help http://www.matrox.com/mga/tech_supp/forum/agree.htm Share this post Link to post
