I have just upgraded my cpu 266-400 and 128meg ram and now when I go to run
Q2 my machine just hangs there and If I press ctrl+alt+del I get quake2 not
responding message If you know the possible cause I would be very grateful
as all I wanna do is to get deathmatching again...Q3test runs ok just all
the other games I've got just freeze up on me.................

In desperation   Jay
