http://www.fuhquake.net/ (this is the standard client these days for online 
play - the major QuakeWorld replacement - but also functions as a Quake 
single-player client)
http://equake.quakeworld.nu/ (this is a package including FuhQuake and many 
other useful files and utilities - but quakeworld.nu seems to be down at the 
moment!)
http://ezquake.sourceforge.net/
http://tenebrae.sourceforge.net/ (this is one of the most popular standard 
Quake replacements - without QuakeWorld networking as far as I know)

Or just use WinQuake/GLQuake/GLQuakeWorld (and for GL, be sure to throw away 
the 3dfxgl driver that comes in the Quake directory, as that will conflict 
with your normal OpenGL graphics driver for whatever card you have).

Actually, I can install Q-1 on my XP machine and it works just fine.
It won't work on yours?

Thanks to all for your almost instant help. Usenet is STILL the most amazing 
resource...   :)
