Not a one.  I'm stumped there.  try starting it with NO .cfg files (just 
move em all to a temp place).  Sometimes there will be something in your 
\baseq2\config.cfg or autoexec.cfg that makes odd changes.  Q2 will 
generate a new default config.cfg when it starts up.  Most all the 
problems I'd ever had with Q2 were in the .cfg files I'd write.
