as dos quake won't run on xp or 2k 
get glquake (if you have a 3d card that supports opengl)
winquake, and quakeworld, quakeworld includes qwcl.exe and glqwcl.exe

don't allow glquake or quakeworld to install opengl32.dll
if you do and glquake and glqwcl won't run delete opengl32.dll from your quake
directory.

winquake glquake and quakeworld add the following command line switches
allocate 32mb ram, screen res 1024x768  
-heapsize 32000 -width 1024 -zone 1024
e.g. winquake -heapsize 32000 -width 1024 -zone 1024
